In order to measure the current density distribution in the T-15 plasma, an interferometer-polarimeter with DCN-laser at {lambda} = 195 {mu}m is inserted into the existing multichannel interferometer with HCN-laser at {lambda} = 337 {mu}m. The device scheme and bench test results are described. High sensitivity of the developed polarimeter (0.1{degrees}) and interferometer (15{degrees}) is obtained. 5 refs., 2 figs.
