Abstract;A new scheme of the charge-exchange injection DoLUCE is reported for the proton storage ring of the next-generation neutron sources of 5MW-class. In this scheme, periodical magnetic field(undulators) and photon beams from powerful lasers are efficiently used for the ionization of the hydrogen beam in stead of stripping foils. The H0 beam of the ground level is excited to that of n=2 and then from n=2 to n=4 level which are Stark-shifted by the Lorentz electric field. By the 2-step excitation, the powerful lasers in infrared and visible ranges can be applicable. All the components of this system, the undulators and the powerful lasers, will be realized with advanced technologies. (author abst.)
