The quantification of fissile materials such as uranium-235 and plutonium-239 in spent fuel assemblies requires isotope-specific identification. We propose the use of nuclear resonance fluorescence (NRF) to identify the isotopic composition of sample materials nondestructively. The proposed nondestructive isotope identification system requires a high-intensity mono-energetic $$gamma$$-ray beam. Although a mono-energetic $$gamma$$-ray beam can be generated using a conventional laser Compton scattering technique, the generation of a high-intensity $$gamma$$-ray beam requires an electron beam of unprecedentedly high brightness, which can be generated with an advanced accelerator system known as the energy recovery linac (ERL). A technological challenge of the ERL system, which we have addressed, is the development of a high-brightness, high-current electron gun. Our current status of development and operational experience of our gun is presented.
