Wed May 11 03:17:14 2022, Patrick, Volker, Guy , Runs, Start laser scanning
|
Runs of the night shift. The wavelength range is 601.95 - 601.735 nm.
We started the wavemeter python script on atppc023 located in Desktop/wavemeter_Bi.
We changed the wavelength range in go4 to the actual scan range.

The laser beamline in the ESR north arc has a [B]knik[/B], therefore the laser beam can not get the "laser tower" in the north east arc. This path is used
to get the laser beam up to the electron-cooler side, such that the laser beam co-propagates the ion beam.

Fri Apr 22 09:38:24 2022, Rodolfo, Laser, getting ready for Fluorescein548
|
We are going to change dye. Therefore I have take out the DCM-dye-solution* out of the dye circulators, rinsed them with Ethanol (5 times) and put new filters.
* This was a solution of 0.3 g/l in 1:1 solvent mixture of Ethanol and DMSO. |
Mon Apr 25 18:47:12 2022, Rodolfo, Laser, New dye circulators
|
I have put into operation the new circulators (SN. 182231, 182201) for our dye laser (the Cobra). I have rinsed them with pure Ethanol first and I have
not seen any leaks.
|
Mon Apr 25 21:47:28 2022, Rodolfo, Laser, green instead UV 
|
I am exchanging the optical elements (mirrors and lenses) for the laser spectroscopy on bismuth. At some places I am also exchanging the 3"-mirror holders
and installing 2"-mirror holders instead.

Fri Apr 29 21:18:12 2022, Rodolfo & Max, Laser, Fluorescein 27, Rh 610 + Rh 640
|
We (Max and Rodolfo) have tested the dyes. I have prepared the dye-solutions according to the recipes given in Sirah's User Manual.
The seed energy for the Cobra was 520 mJ @ 532 nm. The output energy after the Cobra's main amplifier was:

Wed May 4 22:55:37 2022, Rodolfo, Sebastian, Laser, FCU / Temp Control Bug
|
We found a "Bug" in the control of the Sirah dye system.
Due that we don't use the FCU and the temperature control unit we could not start the Sirah software without getting numerous errors.

Wed May 4 22:56:22 2022, Rodolfo, Sebastian, Konstantin, Laser, Laser step complete, scan complete fixed
|
"Laser step complete" and "laser scan complete" are working again.
Problems:
|
Thu May 5 15:24:34 2022, Sebastian, Laser, laser busy problem
|
Current status:
Laser busy signal works correctly (5V if the grating moves, 0V if not) if the laser is operated by the Sirah software.
|
Fri May 6 16:41:57 2022, Patrick, Rodolfo, Laser, Wavemeter 
|
We coupled the laser through a multi-mode fiber into the wavemeter.
With the main amplifier enabled, we got enough power behind the fiber (0.5 - 1.5 mW) to use the wavemeter with 34 ms exposure time (1s / 30Hz to prevent
jumps in the wavemeter readout).

Mon May 9 13:48:20 2022, Rodolfo, Laser, Laser for H-like 209Bi
|
I have changed the dye to Rhodamin 610 + Rhodamin 640. The Cobra wavelength can be tuned now from 600 to 630 nm.
The current wavelength is set to 605 nm. |
