birefringence measurement preparation

[Hugo, Marc, Shalika]

laser diode 1A : 1.6mW

z = 20 mm gives distance between blades and last mirror on injection = 171mm

 horizontal cut

Y: 103 mm cut (power halved) (power on dc 1.1) after hav power on dc was 0.55

X:374mm

z = 20 : Tue, May 28, 2024 2-14-49 PM.txt

z = 40 : Tue, May 28, 2024 2-21-29 PM.txt

z = 60: Tue, May 28, 2024 2-25-28 PM.txt

z = 80: Tue, May 28, 2024 2-29-48 PM.txt

 

verticale:

X: 313

Y : 191

z = 20 : Tue, May 28, 2024 11-32-57 AM.txt

z = 40 : Tue, May 28, 2024 2-01-31 PM.txt

z = 60: Tue, May 28, 2024 2-06-27 PM.txt

z = 80:Tue, May 28, 2024 2-10-41 PM.txt

after realignment horizontal

z = 20 : Tue, May 28, 2024 4-14-32 PM.txt

z = 40 : Tue, May 28, 2024 4-30-15 PM.txt

z = 60 : Tue, May 28, 2024 4-34-03 PM.txt

z = 80 : Tue, May 28, 2024 4-37-59 PM.txt

In the end we recovered normal incidence in both vertical and horizontal directions (within 0.026deg).

We wanted to prepare for linear polariscope measurement but the lockin amplifier showed strange error (undr) related to the chopper signal...

We'll start with polarization camera measurements in the coming days
