In order to produce MeV gamma-ray by the Laser Compton scattering (LCS), a high power optically pumped Far Infrared (FIR) laser has been developed at SPring-8. In the case of the SPring-8 storage ring, the momentum acceptance is so large (± 200 MeV) that the scattered electron is re-accelerated, then the stored beam is not lost by the LCS process. The beam diagnostics beamline is used to inject a FIR laser beam against 8-GeV stored electron beam and to extract MeV gamma-ray produced by LCS. The FIR laser system, gamma-ray production system, and measured gamma-ray spectrum will be presented. Future plans will also be introduced. In order to produce higher intense gamma-ray, we are constructing new gamma-ray production system at another beamline.
