The Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin is constructing the Energy Recovery Linac Prototype BERLinPro, a demonstration facility for the science and technology of ERLs for future light source applications. BERLinPro is designed to accelerate a high current (100 mA, 50 MeV), high brilliance (norm. emittance below 1 mm mrad) cw electron beam. We report on the project status. This includes the completion of the building and the installation of the first accelerator components as well as the assembly of the SRF gun and GunLab beam diagnostics, which are now ready for commissioning.

The Superconducting RF (SRF) photoinjector programme for the energy-recovery linac (ERL) test facility BERLinPro sets out to push the brightness and average current limits for ERL electron sources by tackling the main challenges related to beam dynamics of SRF photoinjectors, the incorporation of high quantum efficiency (QE) photocathodes, and suppression of unwanted beam generation. The paper details the experimental layout of the SRF photoinjector and the gun test facility GunLab at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin.

Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) is currently building an high average current superconducting ERL to demonstrate ERL operation with low normalized beam emittance of 1 mm·mrad at 100mA and short pulses of about 2 ps. For the injector section a series of SRF photoinjector cavities is being developed. The medium power prototype presented here features a 1.4 x λ/2 cell SRF cavity with a normal-conducting, high quantum efficiency CsK2Sb cathode, implementing a modified HZDR-style cathode insert. This injector potentially allows for 6 mA beam current at up to 3.5 MeV kinetic energy. In this contribution, the first RF commissioning results of the photo-injector module will be presented and compared to the level of performance during the cavity production and string assembly process.

For the BERLinPro energy recovery LINAC, HZB is developing a superconducting 1.4-cell electron gun, which, in its final version, is planned to be capable of CW 1.3 GHz operation with 77 pC/bunch. For this purpose a series of three superconducting cavities, denoted as Gun 1.0, Gun 1.1 (both designed for 6 mA) and Gun 2.0 (100 mA) are foreseen. Gun 1.0 now reached operational status and the Gun 1.1 cavity is completely manufactured. In the paper the chronology of manufacturing, tuning and processing of the Gun 1.1-cavity is described, also giving details about combined mechanical/electrodynamic simulations, which were performed in order to gain deeper understanding of the cavity's unexpected tuning behavior.

  A dedicated particle free UHV photocathode plug transfer chain from the preparation system to the SRF-Photoinjector was set up and commissioned at HZB for the BERLinPro project. The plug handling system was designed in collaboration with the ELBE team at HZDR, where the same transfer chain is in commissioning phase. In the future the exchange of photocathodes between the laboratories offers the possibility to test different types of photocathodes in different SRF-photoinjectors.
