Analysis and Performance of the Thomson Scattering Diagnostics on HT-7 Tokamak Based on I-EMCCD

A visible light imaging Thomson scattering （VIS-TVTS） diagnostic system has been developed for the measurement of plasma electron temperature on the HT-7 tokamak. The system contains a Nd：YAG laser （A = 532 nm, repetition rate 10 Hz, total pulse duration ≈ 10 ns, pulse energy 〉 1.0 J）, a grating spectrometer, an image intensifier （I.I.） lens coupled with an electron multiplying CCD （EMCCD） and a data acquisition and analysis system. In this paper, the measurement capability of the system is analyzed. In addition to the performance of the system, the capability of measuring plasma electron temperature has been proved. The profile of electron temperature is presented with a spatial resolution of about 0.96 cm （seven points） near the center of the plasma.     

Development of multi-band and high-speed visible endoscope diagnostic on EAST with catadioptric optics

A new multi-band and high-speed endoscope diagnostic for the observation of visible light has been successfully developed on the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak. The mirror with an aperture is designed at the head of the optical system. Based on two dichroic mirrors, the system is divided into three imaging mirror groups with different bands, i.e. B(380-500 nm), G(500-580 nm) and R(580-750 nm) bands, and its focal length is 16 mm with a relatively large aperture of D/f＝1:4. The spa...

应用于EAST TS诊断的高能高频Nd:YAG激光器设计

设计了一台可输出1064 nm和532 nm激光脉冲的高能高频激光器,分别用于EAST汤姆逊散射诊断系统对芯部区域和边界区域等离子体电子温度和密度的诊断。该激光器采用电光调Q、卡塞格林非稳腔以及氙灯泵浦脉冲放大器实现频率为100 Hz的3.5 J@1064 nm激光输出。通过两级半导体侧泵浦模块对基频光能量放大,输出激光能量5.5 J@1 064 nm。通过理论计算和分析,确定泵浦模块的放大能力,并与实验结果进行对照。采用LBO晶体对基频光进行倍频,输出能量为3 J@532 nm的脉冲激光,倍频效率为55%。输出基频光光斑直径约为14.51 mm,脉冲宽度11.90 ns,倍频光光斑直径约为17.81 mm,脉冲宽度9.92 ns,激光脉冲呈超高斯平顶分布。重复频率从1~100 Hz可调,汤姆逊散射诊断的空间分辨率达10 ms,为芯部和边界输运垒等微观物理问题的研究提供了条件。
