  • Abstract
    The first electron energy spectra obtained from a Cs2Te photocathode using a time-of-flight (TOF) spectrometer are presented and discussed in this paper. The high-resolution angle resolved TOF electron spectrometer has been developed at INFN Milano-LASA (theoretical resolution: 2 meV at 5 eV). The system has been designed for the investigation of the electron beam thermal emittance that is a key parameter for future generation FEL based high brilliance photon sources. The excitation light source is a short pulse solid-state Nd:glass laser (4th harmonic, τ=400 fs, λ=264 nm). In this paper the spectrometer is presented together with first measurements on different metals and Cs2Te
