Abstract;We are conducting experiments of Self-Amplified Spontaneous Emission(SASE) in the far-infrared region using a single-bunch beam from the L-band linac at ISIR, Osaka University. Characteristics of the electron beam were measured and it was found that the one-dimensional theory of SASE was applicable to our SASE experiments. We observed strong light emitted when the single-bunch electron beam passed through the wiggler. The intensity of light was measured as a function of the K-value of the wiggler and it increased by three orders of magnitude as the K-value increased. The intensity variation with the K-value agrees quite well with sthe SASE theory and it was concluded that we observed SASE in the infrared region. (author abst.)
