  FLASH II is a major extension of the existing FLASH facility at DESY. It has been proposed in collaboration with the HZB. FLASH II is a seeded FEL in the parameter range of FLASH. The final layout of the undulator section of FLASH II allows for different seeding schemes. So that seeding with an HHG source as well as seeding in cascaded HGHG scheme and several combination of these schemes are possible. However, for the shortest wavelengths down to 4 nm the cascaded HGHG scheme will be utilized. It consists of two frequency up conversion stages utilizing a Ti:Sa laser based seeding source in UVU range. We present and discuss start-to-end simulation studies for the shortest wavelength generated in the HGHG cascade of FLASH II.

  The characteristic high repetition rate and the high spectral brightness of the electron beams delivered by ERLs have led to a large number of ERL based proposals for hard X-ray sources including X-ray FELs. FEL oscillators, including those proposed for hard X-rays, require comparatively low peak currents and are particularly suitable for ERLs. However single-pass FELs in SASE or seeded mode do not seem out of reach when bunch-compression schemes for higher peak currents are utilized. Using the proposed Cornell ERL as an example, we present and discuss oscillator and single-pass FEL schemes which provide extremely high spectral-brightness ultra-short X-ray pulses for experiments.

  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.
