Constructing vacuum‐ultraviolet beamlines at synchrotron radiation facilities with giga‐electron volt storage ring results in serious heat load on the beamlines which can reduce their performance. To solve this problem, an APPLE‐Knot undulator with eight magnet rows has been built at the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility and has achieved very good performance. However, its performance in vertical polarization mode is imperfect. Here, a new configuration of a magnet‐merged APPLE‐Knot undulator that has achieved a better performance is reported.
