  A compact C-band photocathode RF gun for the MeV UED facility is developed in Tsinghua University, which is designed to work at the frequency of 5.712GHz. This paper presents the physics and RF structure design, and beam dynamics optimization of this C-band RF gun. Some new structure design will be adopted in this gun, including the optimized cavity length and elliptical iris, which is helpful to achieve lower emittance and larger mode separation. This paper likewise presents experiment parameters and the cold test results of this C-band RF gun.
