Abstract Coherent x-ray photons are generated by a free electron laser (FEL). In PAL-XFEL, a photon beam with a 0.1 nm wavelength is generated from an electron bunch based on self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE). An electron bunch with an uncorrelated energy spread in a level of 3 keV, which is generated from the photocathode RF gun, may be sensitive to longitudinal micro-bunching instability. The energy spread of an electron bunch can be increased to suppress the instability by Landau damping. In order to control the uncorrelated energy spread, a laser heater system, which has a chicane with four dipoles chicane and a 0.5 m long undulator, was installed in the injector test facility (ITF) of PAL. In this paper, we introduce the parameters of the laser heater and heating effect on the electron bunch.
