Abstract

Recent development in fast polarization switching at the soft X-ray beamline, BL-16A in the Photon Factory is reported. Two APPLE-II type undulators installed in a tandem configuration enables us to achieve polarization switching between not only two opposite circular polarizations, but also the vertical and horizontal linear polarizations. An energy shift is observed during polarization switching due to a vertical modulation in the electron beam, which has been reduced by properly correcting the electron orbit.
