GaAs crystals are very sensitive need UHV (< 10-11 Torr)

static source: medium emittance / excellent vacuumRF-gun: excellent emittance / good vacuum

LC baseline design: static source + damping ring

New developments: improve emittance of static source: SLAC / KEK improve vacuum of RF-guns: FermiLab more robust crystal (chalcopyrite): PITZ II (?)

Conventional e+ source:NLC baseline design
