Abstract
At the Forschungs-Neutronenquelle Heinz Maier-Leibnitz (FRM II) of the Technical University of Munich (TUM) a new source for ultra-cold neutrons (UCN) with a solid deuterium converter is currently under construction. This summary paper shall give an overview of the project and its current status. Research results concerning converter preparation, para-to-ortho conversion, radiation effects and neutron transport, which have been achieved in the last years, are presented and their relevance and transferability for the design of a future UCN source at the European Spallation Source (ESS) are discussed.
