Pohang Accelerator Laboratory is developing an Elliptically Polarized Undul
ator (EPU6) to utilize the polarized synchrotron radiation at Pohang Light
Source (PLS). EPU6 is an Apple-II type elliptical undulator which changes t
he polarization of the field by translating the magnet arrays. EPU6 feature
s period of 6 cm, minimum gap of 19 mm, 25 full field periods, maximum vert
ical flux density of 0.69 T, maximum horizontal flux density of 0.45 T, and
1575 mm total magnetic structure length. In this article, the design, fabr
ication, the measurement and correction efforts for PLS EPU6 undulator are
described. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
