Abstract
We report on the status of an electron RF-gun made of two superconductors: niobium and lead [1]. The presented design combines the advantages of the RF performance of bulk niobium superconducting cavities and the reasonably high quantum efficiency (QE) of lead, as compared to other superconducting metals. The concept follows the approach of all niobium superconducting RF-gun as it has been proposed by the BNL group. Measured values of quantum efficiency for lead at various photon energies, results of analysis of recombination time of photon-broken Cooper pairs for lead and niobium, and preliminary cold test results are presented in this paper.
