A proposed new high‐luminosity electron‐ion collider requires a polarized electron source of extremely high intensity. An ion back bombardment of the cathode is the main factor limiting the intensity of modern polarized electron guns. This study examines the possibility of building a very high intensity polarized electron gun.
