1 Hydrogen and Ultra-High Vacuum
Jefferson Lab Photo-Electron Gun Baked Stainless chamber Base pressure ~1e-11 Torr Pumped with Ion and NEG pumps Hydrogen dominates residual gas

2 Photocathode Lifetime
Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility Marcy Stutzman 26 September 2003 Photocathode Lifetime ~2.5E-11 Torr ~5.0E-11 Torr >15.0E-11 Torr J. Grames, Jefferson Lab Cathode Degradation Lifetime vs. Pressure

3 Vacuum Improvements Chamber material Al, 304SS, 316L SS Coatings
TiN, SiO2, Getter Pump Speed measurements at UHV

4 Conclusions Vacuum quality directly affects photocathode lifetime
Hydrogen is the primary residual gas in UHV/XHV systems We are researching diffusion barriers and pumping for UHV
