Abstract: A photocathode for use in vacuum electronic devices has a bandgap gradient across the thickness (or depth) of the photocathode between the emitting surface and the opposing surface. This bandgap gradient compensates for depth-dependent variations in transport energetics. When the bandgap energy EBG(z) is increased for electrons with shorter path lengths to the emitting surface and decreased for electrons with longer path lengths to the emitting surface, such that the sum of EBG(z) and the scattering energy is substantially constant or similar for electrons photoexcited at all locations within the photocathode, the energies of the emitted electrons may be more similar (have less variability), and the emittance of the electron beam may be desirably decreased. The photocathode may be formed of a III-V semiconductor such as InGaN or an oxide semiconductor such as GaInO.
