Laser spectroscopy and a home-built laser diode
content provider:
Chad Hoyt
published by the Bethel University
A compilation of several project manuscripts completed by Bethel University undergraduates in PHY330, Optics during spring semester of 2010. The first describes iodine spectroscopy experiments using a New Focus Velocity tunable diode laser. The second project is rubidium spectroscopy performed using a home-built laser similar to the one used in the workshop. The workshop spectroscopy demonstration is a combination of these two projects, using a home-built stabilized diode laser at 633 nm to do simple Iodine spectroscopy. The final manuscript below describes the wavemeter work and operartion, written by a recent Bethel University physics graduate, Sarah Anderson.
