Spectrally Resolved Polarization Angle Across The Motional Stark Effect Spectrum

A new diagnostic technique has been developed that couples a spectrometer and an image-intensified camera into the traditional motional Stark effect (MSE) system on DIII-D. The image-intensified camera syncs with the photo-elastic modulators to spectrally resolve the Stokes parameters across the Stark multiplet. Polarization dependent phase shift, likely from a plasma facing mirror, leads to the spectropolarimeter measuring a variation in the polarization angle across the MSE spectrum of similar to 8 degrees.
