Mechanical realization of a multichannel Martin Puplett interferometer for perpendicular and oblique ECE measurements on JET

In the framework of the Enhancement Projects at JET, an extension of the capabilities of the Martin-Puplett interferometer has been required for the spectral analysis of the perpendicular and oblique signals of the electron cyclotron emission (ECE) over a range of 75-400 GHz. That has been only possible with a complete redesign of the collection optics system. The new instrument is designed to analyze the incoming radiation from standard perpendicular view (two channels) and from oblique view of the ECE radiation at two different angles (four channels) at similar to 10 degrees and similar to 22 degrees from the poloidal plane. The new optical scheme needed a totally new mechanical layout of the system. This work deals with the detailed description of the mechanical realization and the first characterization of the system.
