A free‐electron laser (FEL) based on the proposed Tohoku Light Source storage ring is discussed. In the first stage the FEL is made to operate in the visible region with a relative low beam energy to avoid the complication of mirrors. Then, with a higher beam energy, the FEL can produce radiation of wavelengths in the UV or VUV region. Some simulation results of the storage‐ring FEL with wavelengths of ∼200 nm are presented.
