Abstract
Energy recovery linacs (ERLs), which can generate an electron beam having a high average current and a small-emittance with the complete manipulation of electron beams in the transverse and the longitudinal phase space, are expected to realize future light sources for various photon energies from terahertz to x- and γ-rays. In this paper, we present an overview of the history, current status, and prospects of ERLs for light sources. Research activities on the critical components of the ERLs, such as electron guns and superconducting cavities, are also described.
