Optical Design and Synthetic Analysis of the Electron Cyclotron Emission Imaging Diagnostic of HL-2M Tokamak
Fusion engineering and design(2023)
摘要
The electron cyclotron emission imaging (ECEI) diagnostic is a powerful tool to study the MHD and turbulent transport in magnetically confined fusion plasmas. In this work, the optical system including the local oscillator (LO) coupling and radio frequency (RF) receiving optics, has been designed and analyzed for the HL-2M ECEI diagnostic. The LO optics can illuminate the antenna array and drive the mixer diode to work efficiently, with more than 36% of the beam intensity for the channels which probe the plasma edge relative to those of channels which probe the plasma core. The RF optics aims at guiding the plasma emission signal to the antenna array. To meet different physical requirements, three types of field of view have been achieved for the plasma imaging, with zoom factors of around 1, 1.5 and 2, respectively. The focal surfaces are almost flat, with a maximum off-mapping (defined as the radial distance between the beam waists of the lower-/uppermost antennas and electron cyclotron emission layer) less than 2.5 cm, which can match the electron cyclotron emission layer quite well and suppress the image distortion in the plasma edge region. The impact of possible vibrations and installation error on the focal plane has been evaluated. In addition, the predefined MHD and turbulence perturbations are well reproduced by combining the optical simulation results and synthetic ECEI modeling, which further verifies the good performance of the RF optics.
