 This characterisation is at many points compared to a {{ :groups:mg:project_ptb-cavity:105638_test_report_rev4.1_20mw_automated.pdf |report}} by rio on the factory test of the diode. The graphs taken from the factory test report use thick blue lines, the others use fine black dots. This characterisation is at many points compared to a {{ :groups:mg:project_ptb-cavity:105638_test_report_rev4.1_20mw_automated.pdf |report}} by rio on the factory test of the diode.

 In all three spectrum measurements above, the gaussian term of the Voigt fit dominates the lorentzian term. This shows that the linewidth (FWHM) in the measurements above is mainly determined by the shift of center frequency, leading to a much higher linewidth than the lorentzian FWHM of 1.3 KHz described in the test report. In all three spectrum measurements above, the gaussian term of the Voigt fit dominates the lorentzian term.

 +To describe the instability of the measured values, the Allan deviation/overlapping Allan Deviation is used. There is a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allan_variance|Wikipedia article]] which explains the Allan deviation very well.

 The allen deviation shows similar characteristics as for measurement 1. The lowest relative instability is approximately 4.5*10<sup>-4</sup> for a timescale of about 100s. The power seems to underly noise on a short timescale, dominated by a drift on the larger timescale. This drift seems to be rather random comparing the graphs plotting power vs time of measurement 1 and 2. The allen deviation shows similar characteristics as for measurement 1.
