Superconducting RF technology has been developed at Peking University for more than 20 years. In the recent years, the researches are mainly focused on producing high performance superconducting cavities and installing the DC-SRF photocathode injector as well as related 2K cryogenic facility and other auxiliary equipment. The cavities designed and fabricated by Peking University mainly include TESLA type 9-cell cavities, 1.3 GHz 5-cell cavity for high current electron beam acceleration and 450 MHz spoke cavity for low energy proton acceleration. Vertical tests of the cavities indicate that the cavities show good performances and can be used for superconducting accelerators. The gradient of a 9-cell TESLA type cavity with end groups (PKU3) reaches 28.6 MV/m. To promote the industrialization process in China, a new company, Ningxia Orient Superconductor Technology Co., Ltd., was founded jointly by Ningxia OTIC and Peking University in 2011. The goal of this company is to produce various types of superconducting cavities and pure niobium materials with high quality.
