Abstract: | In this article,we present the optical design of a novel diagnostic on the HL-2A tokamak,i.e.the 20-channel edge Lyman-alpha beam emission spectroscopy,which is a promising solution for edge density turbulence research on tokamaks,as it offers the possibility of density fluctuation measurement with a 3.3 mm spatial resolution while maintains a high temporal resolution of 1 μs.The optical path,including the reflective collection optics,the high-dispersion spectrometer,and the linear detector array,is carefully optimized to obtain a good image quality and a high throughput.The maximum root mean square radius of the collection optics is 64 μm.The detected photon flux is estimated to be about 1011 photons/s/channel. |
