Measurement of the Magnetic Field in a Linear Magnetized Plasma by Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy

Abstract: Tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS) is a commonly used technique to measure the temperature and density of atoms or molecules in a gas. In this work, we demonstrate that the TDLAS diagnostics could be effectively applied to measure the magnetic field in a low-density weakly magnetized plasma using the Zeeman splitting of the absorption spectrum of lines from noble gases. The laser wavelength is tailored to fit the 1 s 5 → 2 p 6 transition of atomic Ar with the wavelength λ = 763… Show more

“…The measurements of magnetic eld at the tip of Langmuir probes could be of a special interest as it allows to perform the tomography of the eld practically at any position in the plasma. Figure 8 shows an overview of the measured magnetic eld values determined in this work in comparison to the magnetic eld values calculated via the Biot-Savart law and the magnetic eld determined via tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS) measurements on Ar I by [19,20]. Whereas the agreement with theoretical vacuum calculations is within 3%, the agreement with the experimental TDLAS data is within 10%.…”

“…The broadening of the Lyman-α line due to exothermic energy transfer between Ar m and H(n = 2) was reported by Clyne [34]. We hope that the newly-installed Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) diagnostic [19], which measures the metastable fraction of Ar, combined with the emission measurements of fast atoms, will provide new insights into this excitation mechanism in the near future.…”

“…The applied magnetic field confines the plasma in a cylindrical geometry with a radius of about 5 cm. At the position of spectroscopic measurements, the value of the magnetic field is about 0.1 T [19]. The mirrors (1.3 × 1.3 cm 2 ) were installed in the target chamber using either the cooled axial or side manipulator.…”

“…Tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS) is a measurement technique commonly used in a variety of applications recently as well as temperature and density of molecules in gas [15,16]. When a laser beam permeates an absorption medium, its intensity will be attenuated by the absorbing gas species.…”
