AB  - We have developed a THz-driven field emission electron gun and beam characterization assembly. The two cell standing-wave gun operates in the pi mode at 110.08 GHz. It is designed to produce 360 keV electrons with 500 kW of input power supplied by a 110 GHz gyrotron. Multiple gun structures were electroformed in copper using a high precision diamond-turned mandrel. The field emission cathode is a rounded copper tip located in the first cell. The cavity resonances were mechanically tuned using azimuthal compression. This work will discuss details of the fabrication and tuning and present the results of low power measurements.
