In this review, the present research progress in varied-doping GaAs photocathodes is summarized from the cases of the structure kinds, the mechanism of photoelectricity emission, the preparation technique and the influence of varied-doping structure on the performance of the cathodes. This work is still in the start stage right now, and needs the further investigation in theory. Researching varied-doping GaAs photocathodes is available to enhancing the performance of local third-generation low light level devices by independent innovation.
