In the past few years, there has been considerable interest in using an energy recovery linac (ERL) for future light sources and high-energy nuclear physics. The electron beam requirements of the ERLs under consideration span a wide range in parameters such as current, current density, frequency, operating temperatures, accelerating gradients etc. The design of the injector, whether it is normal conducting or superconducting, DC or RF, average current, temporal profile of the electron bunch all play key role in the choice of the photocathode. In this paper, we attempt to provide an overview of the available cathode materials, the pros and cons associated with each and the electron beam parameters they can provide.
