  A R&D programme for the construction of a 2 m long 18 mm period CPMU is under progress at SOLEIL. The cryogenic undulator will provide photons in the region of 1.4 to 30 keV. It will be installed in the next few months on the long straight section (SDL13) of the storage ring, and could be used later on to produce photons for the NANOSCOPIUM beamline. The use of PrFeB which features a 1.35 T remanence (Br) at room temperature enables to increase the peak magnetic field at 5.5 mm minimum gap, from 1.04 T at room temperature to 1.15 T at a cryogenic temperature of 77 K. Praseodymium was chosen instead of Neodymium magnetic material, because it is more resistant against the appearance of the Spin Reorientation Transition. Different corrections were performed first at room temperature to adjust the phase error, the electron trajectory and to reduce the multipolar components. The mounting inside the vacuum chamber enables the fitting of a dedicated magnetic measurement bench to check the magnetic performance of the undulator at low temperature. The results of the magnetic measurements at low temperature and the comparison with the measurement at room temperature are reported.

  Producing high energy photons between 10 keV and 70 keV is a challenging topic in a medium energy storage ring. It requires up-to-date measurement techniques and specific Insertion Device (ID) technologies to produce high magnetic fields and short periods. SOLEIL (2.75 GeV) has designed and built eight conventional in-vacuum hybrid undulators operating at high radiation harmonics and also one small gap multipole wiggler to produce high magnetic field. The construction has been progressively improved by the choice of new magnetic materials of better quality and higher magnetization, additional correction techniques and mechanical changes. A 2-m long full scale cryogenic undulator made of PrFeB and vanadium permendur has been built, measured, corrected and is to be tested on the beam. An additional wiggler dedicated for Slicing experiments has been designed. The required magnetic field is high enough to also consider the ID as a good candidate for the production of hard X-ray photons. This paper presents the ID dedicated for the high energy photons and their spectral performances.

  SOLEIL prepares a new 65 mm period Electromagnetic/Permanent Magnets Helical Undulator (EMPHU), with a rapid switching at 5 Hz of the polarization required for dichroïsm experiments. The vertical field Bz is produced by coils fed by a fast switching power supply (designed and built in house), with a maximum current of 350 A and a polarity switching time shorter than 100 ms. The coils consist of 25 stacked copper layers shaped by water jet cutting. The current flows in 16 layers and 9 of them are cooled with thermal drain to a water piping. 4 additional power supplies feed 2 types of correction coils for the dynamic compensation of the field integrals, besides the ones for the termination. 1.28 T remanence NdFeB permanent magnets generate the horizontal field Bx. Peak Bz and Bx in the helical configuration reach 0.24 T at 14.7 mm minimum gap. Thermal modelling and measurements aim at keeping the magnet temperature constant. The static magnetic configuration was optimised using the IDBuilder software and the trajectory were checked for insuring a good reproducibility of the photon beam pointing when sweeping from one helicity to the other.
