However, the effect of cathode temperature and laser wavelength on quantum efficiency is known only for limited conditions. Although it is expected to be able to lengthen the required wavelength of photocathode drive laser by heating cathodes, laser with photon energy under the work function has not been tested. Revealing them enables us to design the cost minimum accelerators. In this research, photoemission properties of LaB6 and CeB6 with various excitation photon energies will be investigated under various temperatures of the materials. Those materials have similar work function, but CeB6 have one order of magnitude smaller Richardson constant than LaB6***. By comparing photoemission properties of these materials, impact of Richardson constant on the photoemission properties will be investigated.
