 The free electron laser in Hamburg (FLASH) is a user facility providing high brilliant laser light for experiments in the VUV and EUV wavelengths range. It is based on TESLA type superconducting accelerating structures, and therefore a unique facility for testing superconducting accelerator technology for the European XFEL, and for supporting the international linear collider (ILC) R&D effort. This workshop contribution reviews the progress on superconducting RF technology in view of cavity and accelerating module performance and reports about the operational experience gained with FLASH operated as a user facility.

 Ultra short bunches with high peak current are required for the creation of high brilliance coherent light in the x-ray range in undulators. At the European x-ray free electron laser (XFEL) they will be obtained by a two stage bunch compression scheme based on off the rf field crest acceleration and transverse magnetic chicanes. The deviation of the rf field's sine shape from a straight line leads to long bunch tails and reduce peak current. This effect will be eliminated by adding a third harmonic rf system. The paper surveys the basic principle for the third harmonic rf, the most relevant design parameters, the actual status of beam physical examinations and potential concepts for the technical realization.
