Molybdenum can be used as a substrate for the bi-alkali antimonide photocathodes utilized for the generation of high brightness electron beams in a superconducting radio frequency (SRF) photoinjector cavities. Operation at high field strength is required to obtain a low emittance beam, thus increasing the probability of field emission (FE) from the cathode surface. Usually, substrates are heated in situ before alkali de- position to remove oxide layers from the surface. FE on Mo substrates was measured by means of a field emission scanning microscope (FESM). It turned out that in situ heat treatment (HT) of the Mo surface significantly changes the FE behaviour by activation of new emitters. For a better understanding of the mechanism for enhanced emission after in situ heating a witness Mo sample was investigated using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
