A use of bulk high-temperature superconductors (HTSs) for an undulator is attractive since a high magnetic field can be generated at low-temperatures. While potential for generation of the high magnetic field is high, in-situ magnetization of the bulk HTSs for periodic field generation is challenging issue. Recently, we proposed a new type of undulator using bulk high-Tc superconductors (HTS) and a solenoid magnet. The undulator, named Bulk HTSC staggered array undulator (Bulk HTSC SAU), consists of a stacked array of bulk HTSs and copper insulators and a solenoid magnet. A proof of principle experiment at 77 K using liquid nitrogen has been carried out. The estimated performance at about 30 K was estimated using results of property measurements for the HTS used for the Bulk HTSC SAU. The expected undulator peak field reaches to 1.08 T for undulator period length of 9.9 mm for the undulator gap of 4.0 mm. This performance is about 2 times higher than that of existing technologies.
