  In order to develop a tera-hertz(THz) radiation source and to make scientific researches on application of THz technology, a study on tera-hertz source is performed. The radiation source is based on technology of free electron laser(FEL). The energy booster section of the injector uses a 9 Cell standing wave accelerator as the main accelerator for the FEL. The accelerator works at S band.(2856 MHz), excited by a microwave power of about 3.5 MW. At the end of the accelerator, the high quality beam energy is of 6.5MeV ~ 7 MeV, and the current about 300 mA. This paper presents the newly prgress of the , as well as the working condition of the main accelerator.
