Abstract
The Beijing FEL is a rf linac based facility designed to work in the I R spectra range. In this paper, the design consideration and system la yout are briefly reviewed first, and then various measures adopted to optimize the electron beam quality to satisfy the lasing requirement a re described. Spontaneous emission, stored spontaneous emission and la sing were observed in sequence. The optical spectrum, detuning curve a nd wavelength shift were measured to confirm first lasing. Further wor k to be performed is indicated.
