Two most commonly used techniques of impurity injection are laser blow-off and gas puffing. Short bursts of impurities, injected using the laser blow-off injection technique, are among other transient perturbation methods, undoubtedly best suited to study impurity transport The injection time and the amount of injected material can be controlled in order to study a certain phase of the discharge with a minimum perturbation of the plasma parameters. Furthermore, the source is of very short duration and thus provides an experimentally more direct measure of impurity transport.展开更多
