Doppler-free two-photon excitation of hydrogen Lyman-α fluorescence is investigated as a possible laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) technique for the diagnosis of magnetically confined fusion (MCF) plasmas. A formal analysis is presented of the underlying atomic and plasma physics as well as of various practical aspects, such as parameter optimization and experimental precision. The latter is analyzed with regard to the photon noise and to the sensitivity of the fluorescence signals to the plasma and laser parameters. The diagnostic potential of the LIF technique described relies on its high spectral resolution. Thus, the absorption lines of the hydrogen isotopes H, D, and T are clearly separated from each other and can serve for isotope-selective density measurements. In addition, using a tunable laser system with small bandwidth, various plasma parameters can be inferred from the spectral line shapes, such as the neutrals’ temperatures or the effective charge number Zeff. The polarization of the fluoresc...
