Measurement of ETMX substrate from GT

Matteo, Simon

After the little desaster today with the ETMY substrate, we confirmed that the absorption bench was not damaged and continued to do the absorption measurements with the ETMX substrate from GT. We confirmed that this sample has approximately the same thickness as the ETMY one and set it into the sample-holder in the same way.

We learned our lessons today and did the alignment settings of the substrate without the IR-laser, just with the probe-laser.

The absorption-map is now being taken and the measurement should be finished by tomorrow (fingers crossed!).
