  135   Tue Mar 22 21:19:48 2022 Manar AmerFixedreportlasers and opticsThomX iglooAlphanov amplifier Beam ProfileToday: Manar, Ronic and Aurlien started
the study of the beam profile of the alphanov
amplifier at high power.

- the chiller temperature has to
be set to 25°C
  
  133   Fri Mar 18 11:48:14 2022 Ronic ChicheFixedinfolasers and opticsThomX iglooAlphanov amplifier power measurementThis morning, with Manar and Aurélien,
we measure the power directly at
the output of the Alphanov amplifier with

  130   Fri Mar 11 17:33:33 2022 Ronic ChicheFixedinfolasers and opticsThomX iglooFirst hands on the Alphanov amplifier & softwareAurélien, Manar, and I spent more
than 2h trying to start the software communicating
with the Alphanov amplifier controller.

  128   Fri Mar 11 12:46:58 2022 Ronic ChicheFixedinfolasers and opticsThomX iglooFP cavity mode axis change and Finesse measurementthis morning with Manar, we did a cavity
mode axis change.

we checked the cavity mode centroid

is the L-shape metal piece if it is slightly
inserted in the FP-cavity mode path.

  123   Thu Feb 3 18:40:04 2022 Manar AmerFixedreportlasers and optics | detectors and electronicsThomX iglooFP cavity alignment The fluctuation problem has been solved.
It was simply the new scheme to inject
2 RF frequencies in a single EOM.
  
  121   Thu Feb 3 14:11:50 2022 Manar AmerFixedreportlasers and optics | detectors and electronicsThomX iglooCavity Lock and Finess measurment This morning, me and Ronic managed to obtain
the FSR and image of the finesse which is
to be analyzed.

AOM+RF amplifier and the associated fast
feedback loop.
