We review current methods for production of polarized electron beams. Major focus is devoted to photoemission from GaAs, which is the way that current facilities rely on. Some aspects of this kind of technology such as the physics behind generation of polarized beams and its advantages and limitations are considered. Finally, the perspectives for implementation of a GaAs photocathode in a RF gun are discussed.

Abstract
We review current methods for production of polarized electron beams. Major focus is devoted to photoemission from GaAs, which is the way that current facilities rely on. Some aspects of this kind of technology such as the physics behind generation of polarized beams and its advantages and limitations are considered. Finally, the perspectives for implementation of a GaAs photocathode in a RF gun are discussed.File in questo prodotto:
