  In the framework of the preparatory activities to the BriXSino project, a test bench for testing Cs2Te photocathode at 100 MHz laser repetition rate has been installed at INFN LASA. This high repetition operation mode is foreseen to be the base operation mode of BriXSino and a qualification of the Cs2Te photocathodes is a key component. While we are not at full specification due to the limited HV of the present DC gun, we discuss the status of the test bench and the initial results.

  Multi-alkali antimonide-based photocathodes are suitable candidate for the electron sources of next-generation high brightness RF photoinjectors due to their excellent photoemissive properties especially, like low thermal emittances and high sensitivity to visible light. The former stands out, paving the way towards CW operations. Based on the previous successful development of Cesium Telluride photocathodes, we are now channelling our efforts toward an R&D activity focused on KCsSb and NaKSb(Cs) photocathodes. Parallel to that R&D activity, we have installed a new dedicated photocathode production system at the INFN-LASA to start the preparation of these photocathodes for their test in the PITZ photoinjector at DESY in Zeuthen. In this paper, detailed experimental results obtained from the KCsSb, along with a preliminary result from the NaKSb(Cs) photocathode material as well as the status of the overall project are presented.
