In the synchrotron radiation community there is a strong request for high brightness, coherent X-ray light pulses, especially in the 1 to 0.1 nm wave length range. A Free Electron Laser (FEL), driven by a linear single pass accelerator, is today the most promising mechanism able to produce such radiation. Since the electron beam brightness plays a major role in the laser saturation process and in the final energy of the driving linac, many laboratories are presently working on a new generation of low emittances sources. The present analysis will give an indication about the FEL behaviour and the undulator parameters versus the slice beam quality (emittance, current, energy spread).

Most of the current 1Å Free-Electron Laser (FEL) projects are based on thermionic or photocathode guns aiming at an electron beam emittance of 0.5 to 1 mm·mrad. The design of a gun capable of producing a beam with an emittance one or two order of magnitude lower than the state of the art would reduce considerably the cost and size of such a FEL. Due to the recent advances in nanotechnologies and vacuum microelectronics, a field-emitter based gun is a promising alternative scheme. We present first measurements on commercial field emitter arrays as well as 3-D numerical simulations of the electron beam dynamics for typical bunch distributions generated from field emitters in realistic gun geometries. The design and some experimental results on a 500kV pulser is also presented.
