	Results from the high current, low emittance photo injector at Cornell revealed that even with two opposing input couplers, the beam emittance is affected by the coupler kick. As a result, a coupler with low transverse kick is proposed for use in superconducting accelerating cavities. In this coupler, a rectangular waveguide transforms into a coaxial line inside the beam pipe. The geometry of the coupler is tuned to minimize the transverse kick that is important for linear accelerators with low emittance. The coupler can be used in ERL injectors or other linacs for high brightness light sources.
