Squeezing Work Pickup

[Sheila, Haocun]

Today we went to the ISCT6 to continue the work on squeezing.

The SHG was still beabled to be locked, (temp tuned to 35.8C, got ~113mW IR in and ~23mW Green out), but the green beam was misaligned a little at the EOM.

I realigned it and coupled the green beam to fiber, and also did the coupling for CLF and SEED. The efficiencies are all 75% - 80%.

We ordered a fiber microscope, and it is still on the way. I did a rough check of the green path: ~8mW going into the long fiber, and ~7mW before the feedthrough. There are some sleeves that can be changed if needed.

 

Also did:

* Link ISCT6 AS air camera screen

* Homodyne diodes reading added

 

THe next step can be focused on SQZT6 mode matching/ fiber and optics located/ Homodyne electronics diagnostic.
