Future synchrotron light source using a 5-GeV-class energy recovery linac (ERL) is under proposal by our Japanese collaboration team, and we are conducting active R&D efforts for that. We are developing super-brilliant DC photocathode guns, two types of cryomodules for both injector and main superconducting linacs, 1.3 GHz high CW-power rf sources, and other important components. We are also constructing a compact ERL for demonstrating the recirculation of low-emittance, high-current beams using those key components. We present our recent progress in this project.

In order to improve the capture efficiency of the positron produced at the target in present KEKB Injector linac, a new project has just started to utilize L-band (1298MHz) RF. The present S-band (2856MHz) capture cavities and successive three RF units are to be replaced by those of L-band. The specifications of the L-Band system should fulfill the demands of a positron damping ring downstream which is also to be under study for super KEKB project. Besides the whole design work of the system, our present ongoing work is rather concentrated on establishing L-Band RF source and accelerating structures.

ERL (Energy Recovery Linac) of 5GeV energy is a future plan in KEK and in order to study the technical feasibility, construction of a compact ERL machine (cERL) is considered. Beam energy and current of cERL are 245MeV and 100mA, respectively. As 1.3 GHz frequency and super conducting cavity are chosen for the RF system, similar technology with KEK STF is employed. From 2008, KEK started the preparation of cERL and one RF unit of injector linac is introduced in this fiscal 2009. A new cw klystron of 300kW out put power, 150kW Y-type circulator and high power water load were developed in FY2009. DC power supply was under manufacturing. Preliminary test of HLRF and the high power couplers are scheduled in the Photon Factory site by making use of the old DC power supply. For main accelerator, we also introduced a 30kW IOT and a 35kW klystron and a DC power supply. At the same time, cERL is determined to be constructed in the East Counter Hall in KEK and the design layout is preceded. In this paper, the recent RF source development of cERL is described. Layout of the east counter hall, where cERL is constructed, is progressed and shown in this report.

The next generation B-factory 'SuperKEKB' project whose target luminosity is 8 ×10³⁵ cm^-2s^-1 is under consideration. A 'nano-beam scheme' is introduced to the SuperKEKB. In the scheme, an electron beam (Energy = 7 GeV, Charge = 3-4 nC/bunch, Vertical emittance =2.8 x 10^-5 m) and a positron beam (Energy = 4 GeV, Charge = 4 nC/bunch, Vertical emittance = 1.6 x 10^-5 m), are required at the end of injector linac. They are quite challenging targets for the present linac. In order to meet the requirements, we will introduce some new components to the linac. They are a photo-cathode RF gun for an electron beam, a positron capture section using new L-band cavities, a newly designed positron-generation target system and a damping ring for a positron beam. This presentation shows a strategy of our injector upgrade.
