  High-brightness and reliable sources in the VUV and the soft X-ray region may be used for numerous applications in such areas as medicine, biology, biochemistry, material science, etc. We have proposed a new approach to produce the intense beams of X-rays in the range of eV based on Thomson scattering of Coherent Diffraction Radiation (CDR) on a 43 MeV electron beam. CDR is generated when a charged particle moves in the vicinity of an obstacle. The radiation is coherent when its wavelength is comparable to or longer than the bunch length. The CDR waves are generated in an opened resonator formed by two mirrors. In this report the status of the experiment, the first CDR measurements at the multibunch beam of the LUCX facility and general hardware design will be reported.
