  The concept of a novel micro-pulse electron gun (MPG) based upon pi-mode dual-cavity is proposed and analyzed in this paper, and we termed it as dual-cavity micro-pulse electron gun (D-MPG) as compared to single-cavity standard MPG. From simulations, it is clear that the D-MPG is capable of yielding dozens of ampere peak currents and a few ps bunch length. Thought the mechanism for dual cavity is not fully understand, the D-MPG has demonstrate the potential to be the injectors for FEL and THz radiation facilities. Also it is a good candidate to replace the thermal cathode for industrial and medical accelerator system because of the cost-effective of the D-MPG.
