This contribution discusses the progress toward a proof-of-principle demonstration for a conduction-cooled electron source. The source consists of a simple modification of an elliptical cavity that enhances the field electric field at the photocathode surface. The source was cooled to cryogenic temperatures and preliminary measurements for the quality factor and accelerating field were performed. Additionally, we present future plans to improve the source along with simulated beam-dynamics performances.
