Readout electronics for a high-resolution soft X-ray spectrometer based on silicon drift detector

The readout electronics for a prototype soft X-ray spectrometer based on silicon drift detector (SDD),for precisely measuring the energy and arrival time of X-ray photons is presented in this paper.The system mainly consists of two parts,i.e.,an analog electronics section (including a pre-amplifier,a signal shaper and filter,a constant fraction timing circuit,and a peak hold circuit) and a digital electronics section (including an ADC and a TDC).Test results with X-ray sources show that an energy dynamic range of 1-10 keV with an integral nonlinearity of less than 0.1％ can be achieved,and the energy resolution is better than 160 eV@5.9 keV FWHM.Using a waveform generator,test results also indicate that time resolution of the electronics system is about 3.7 ns,which is much less than the transit time spread of SDD (＜100 ns) and satisfies the requirements of future applications.

Measurement of tungsten impurity spectra with a two-crystal X-ray crystal spectrometer on EAST

Spectral measurement of tungsten (W) impurity is essential to study impurity transport. Therefore, an X-ray crystal spectrometer (XCS) on EAST was used to measure the line spectra from highly ionized W ions. On EAST, both poloidal XCS and tangential XCS have been developed to measure the plasma temperature as well as the rotation velocity. Recently, He-like and H-like argon spectra have also been obtained using a two-crystal setup. W lines are identified in this study. Through a careful analysis, the W lines of 3.9336, 3.9321, and 3.664 Å are found to be diffracted by He-like or H-like crystals. The lines are confirmed with the NIST database. We also calculated the ion temperature with Doppler broadening of these lines. The ion temperature from the W lines is entirely consistent with that from Ar line spectra. The measurement of these W line spectra could be used to study W impurity transport in future work.
