Multi-Channel FIR Laser Interferometer on the HL-2A Tokamak

In recent years, the high density plasma in the range of 10^19～ 10^20m^-3 have been operated in large or middle tokamak device in the world. A muhichannel far infrared interferometer for profile measurement of plasma density on HL-2A divertor tokamak is being developed, however the design of the interferometer will appear many new problem in face of experimental environment of the HL-2A divertor device, such as how to make both transmission and arrangement of optics of the interferometer, the effect of electromo- tive force on device and how about the vibration etc. According to the eight windows setting on the largest flange of the device we have to design a Michelson-type FIR laser interferometer with 8 probing channels and eight concave mirrors must be attached it to the inner wall of the vacuum vessel of the device. Therefore, there are many problems should be taken into account to resolve, for example, （ 1 ） the vibration-proof consider for muhichannel interferometer and HCN laser, （2） the stabilization and reliability of the mirror frame uum vessel, the mirrors, hanging on internal wall of vachow to prevent the sputtering to （3） the vacuum seal of the windows and the design of mobile seal for the shutter to avoid the sputter coating of plasma,
