Absolute intensity calibration of the Wendelstein 7-X high efficiency extreme ultraviolet overview spectrometer system

Absolute intensity calibration of the Wendelstein 7-X high efficiency extreme ultraviolet overview spectrometer system.

The new high effiency extreme ultraviolet overview spectrometer (HEXOS) system for the stellarator Wendelstein 7-X is now mounted for testing and adjustment at the tokamak experiment for technology oriented research (TEXTOR). One part of the testing phase was the intensity calibration of the two double spectrometers which in total cover a spectral range from 2.5 to 160.0 nm with overlap. This w...

An Extreme Ultraviolet Spectrometer

A concept and preliminary design of an Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) spectrometer is presented. The spectrometer is based on a gas ionization chamber and an advanced eight-electrode electron focusing system to form a narrow electron beam on a photodiode aperture. The design is modeled with the SIMulation of IONs (SIMION) tools and shows the ability to scan through the spectral range of 20.0 – 40.6 ...

Design and Calibration of a Polychromator for the Thomson Scattering at Wendelstein 7-X

On Wendelstein 7-X, electron density and electron temperature profiles are planned to be measured by Thomson scattering. The specific system employs fiber bundles for the scattered light which is detected by means of a five-channel polychromator system. The detection system is assembled and its components are characterized. A calibration technique employing a super-continuum light source is ass...

Calibration of an extreme-ultraviolet transmission grating spectrometer with synchrotron radiation.

The responsivity of an extreme-ultraviolet transmission grating spectrometer with silicon photodiode detectors was measured with synchrotron radiation. The spectrometer was designed to record the absolute radiation flux in a wavelength bandpass centered at 30 nm. The transmission grating had a period of 200 nm and relatively high efficiencies in the +1 and the -1 diffraction orders that were di...
