  FLASH II is an extension of the existing FLASH facility by an undulator line and an experimental Hall of which the construction will start before the end of the year. Aims are to increase beamtime for users and implement HHG seeding for the longer wavelength range from 10 to 40 nm at a reduced repetition rate of 100 kHz. Additional seeding schemes are under discussion as a future option. We will present a progress report of FLASH II.  
 
THOAI1 Pushing the Limits of Short Period Permanent Magnet Undulators 435

  Short period undulators to be used as FEL radiators permit lower electron energies and, thus, reduce linac and undulator lengths. The first X-ray FEL facility based on in-vacuum undulators goes into operation soon (SPRING-8 XFEL). Other in-vacuum undulator based FELs are under construction (SWISS-FEL) or are planned. The in-vacuum undulators have period lengths between 18mm (SPRING-8-X-FEL) and 15mm (SWISS-FEL). In the future the period length will be pushed further into the sub-cm regime. The technical implications of these devices will be discussed: New materials such as PrFeB-magnets are employed. They show their superior characteristics at cryogenic temperatures. Geometric and magnetic tolerances will be tighter and the construction and shimming concepts have to be revised. New magnetic measurement systems are required as well. Recently, a 9mm period length 20 period prototype undulator has been built in collaboration between Ludwig-Maximilian-University Munich and Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin. The potential and the challenges of sub-cm undulators will be illustrated based on first results from this prototype.
