.3 keV femtosecond X-ray generation through laser-Compton scattering with 14MeV electron source and a TW Ti:sapphire laser was achieved. In order to increase the X-ray energy up to 15 keV for some applications, e.g. protein crystallography, we modified the system to increase electron energy. Electron beams emitted from a S-band RF photocathode are accelerated up to 40MeV with two 1.5m standing-wave linacs. The beams are bended at 90 degree using an achromatic bending system, then focused with a triplet quadrupole-magnet to be interacted with laser pulses. The characteristics of electron beams, emittance, energy and energy dispersion, will be described.
