We discuss the progress made on a new installation in Fermilab’s Main Injector that will help investigate the electron cloud phenomenon by making direct measurements of the secondary electron yield (SEY) of samples irradiated in the accelerator. In the Project X upgrade the Main Injector will have its beam intensity increased by a factor of three compared to current operations. This may result in the beam being subject to instabilities from the electron cloud. Measured SEY values can be used to further constrain simulations and aid our extrapolation to Project X intensities. The SEY test-stand, developed in conjunction with Cornell and SLAC, is capable of measuring the SEY from samples using an incident electron beam when the samples are biased at different voltages. We present the design and manufacture of the test-stand and the results of initial laboratory tests on samples prior to installation.

A wide R&D program is pursued at Cornell University aimed at preparation and characterization of high efficiency photocathodes for the Energy Recovery Linac photoinjector. The currently investigated photoemitters include both positive and negative electron affinity materials such as respectively bi-alkali antimonide and III-V semiconductors activated with Cs and either O or F. Analysis techniques as Scanning Auger Spectroscopy, Low Energy Electron Diffraction, Reflected High Energy Electron Diffraction and work function measurements are used to characterize the surfaces properties of the specimens. Spectral response, photoemission uniformity, electron energy distributions are used to characterize the quality of the photoelectron beam and to relate it to the measured surface properties.
