====== 383 nm Laser system (T-MOT) ====== The 383 nm laser system consists of 767 nm lasers which are then frequency doubled to achieve 383 nm light. **External Cavity Diode Laser (ECDL)** For 767 nm lasers, ECDL in Littrow configuration is used. Typically we used the laser diodes from Eagleyard Photonics: EYP-RWE-0790-02000-1500-SOT02-0000 Recently, Eagleyard has replaced these with new laser diodes: EYP-RWE-0760-02010-1500-SOT12-0000 **TA** * Output Power: 1.5 W * Input Current: 2 A * Injection Power: 32 mW * Power behind 30dB Isolator: 1.05 W * Originally this TA was used: EYP-TPA-0765-01500-3006-CMT03-0000. Is this still true? **Fiber** * PMC-780-5,0-NA012-3-APC-200-P * Incoupling: 67% * Power behind fiber: 700 mW ===== Frequenzy doubling ===== **LBO-Crystal** * Lenght: 15 mm * AR coating **Resonator** * Ring resonator (double Z configuration) * Length: 280mm * Curvature of mirrors: 50 mm (S3 and S4) * Distance of mirrors: 64 mm * Waist: 30µm (crystal), 130µm (long arm) * Transmission: TS3 = 0.049%, T1 = 1.2 % * Conversion efficiency ENL = 6.1*10^(-5)/W $$E_{NL} = \kappa L_c k_1 h_m (B,\xi) $$ * Linear losses: eL = 0.85(0.15) % * Finesse: F = 270 {{ :groups:mg:experiment:laser:ueberhoeungsresonator_mg.png?400 |}} ===== Stabilisation ===== * PDH-Method * Error signal at about 20 MHz {{ :groups:mg:experiment:laser:mg_aufbau.png?400 |}} ===== Stabilisation: Laser 4 - Potassium ===== {{ :groups:mg:experiment:laser:image_2022-04-01_110522.png?400|}} Dopplerfree Saturation Spectroscopy on D1 line of Potassium: * 1st the two beams with similar intensity are generated by the beam sampler and are send trough the glas cell * one part of the initial beam is going trough the sampler to a double pass aom and then in the other direction trough the glas cell, crossing only one beam. Important: the beam coming from the aom must have a much higher intensity! * the first two beams, coming from the sampler trough the cell are than monitored by the PD. The signal is substracted * in or case e use the aom to create the peak on one side of the mainpeak. This is important for the lock-in scheme {{ :groups:mg:experiment:laser:dopplerfreespectrosc.gif?700|}}
