Odds and Ends of a Start-Up Lab Alan Xu Li Lab RLM 2.414
Lab Experience • Reconnaissance • Experiment Design/Skills • Purchasing • Infrastructure • Experiment Construction • Spot Size Measurement • Autocorrolation
Reconnaissance • Learning about your project • Learning about other projects
Experiment Design • Optics size • Placement • Safety • Range of Experimental Error • Budget
Design Skills • LabVIEW • Solidworks • Soldering • Machining
Purchasing • Budgeting • To Build or to Buy? • Shipping/Local • Tax exemption • “Best bang for the buck” $732.70!
Infrastructure • Spacing • Racks • HEPA Filter • Curtains
Experiment Construction (Finally) • Machining • “Some assembly required”
Spot Size Measurement • Zaber Motor • “Chopper” with Razerblade • LabVIEW DAQ • Photon Detector
Autocorrolaters • Field • FROG • SPIDER • GRINOUILLE
Field Autocorrolation • My project • Laser: ~100 femtoseconds
Etc. • Research Continues
