[[TJ-II]] disposes of a nine-channel, high-resolution, spectroscopic diagnostic system. This system is currently being used to measure [[impurities|impurity]] ion temperature and poloidal rotation using passive emission spectroscopy. The principal features of the diagnostic include independent focusing of its channels, high sensitivity for performing Doppler measurements in plasmas, as well as a flexible and fast in-house-developed software program for performing integrated data reduction and analysis. | [[TJ-II]] disposes of a nine-channel, high-resolution, spectroscopic diagnostic system.

A vacuum ultraviolet spectrometer has been operated on TJ-II since 1999. It is an f/10.4 1 m normal-incidence vacuum spectrometer equipped with interchangeable 1200 and 3600 lines mm<sup>-1</sup> gratings and a back-illuminated CCD camera with 400 × 1340 pixels (20 × 20 μm<sup>2</sup>). The instrument covers the wavelength range from ~20 to ~300 nm. It has been used to perform spectral surveys (identify and follow the evolution of plasma [[impurities]]), to obtain impurity ion temperatures, and to perform specialized studies (e.g. study fast oxygen ions present in plasmas during the neutral beam injection heating phase). | A vacuum ultraviolet spectrometer has been operated on TJ-II since 1999.
