An ‘‘optical carriage’’ has been developed to improve plasma access for LIF diagnostics. Laser light inducing the fluorescence is transported through an optical fiber to the carriage. A telescope fixed on the carriage collects the plasma fluorescence light and sends it through a fiber bundle to an external PMT. The whole carriage is mounted on rails and can be scanned along and across the magnetic field.
