Superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) electron guns hold out the promise of very bright beams for use in electron injectors, particularly in future high average power free-electron lasers (FELs) and energy recovery linacs (ERLs). Peking University is designing a new SRF gun which is composed of a quarter wave resonator (QWR) and an elliptical cavity. Comparing to the elliptical cavity, the QWR is sufficiently compact at the same frequency and its electric field is quasi-DC. We have finished the preliminary design of the QWR cavity. The simulation shows that multipacting (MP) is not a critical issue for our cavity structure. Beam dynamic simulation of the QWR cavity is also presented.
