Set Up

  1. Ensure that the alignment laser is level with the table by checking its height at two separate, far apart locations on the bench.
  2. Ensure that the alignment laser is collimated. Below is a table of wavefront radii of curvature at different distances from the laser as measured with a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor.
Distance, cm RoC, m
50 cm -30 +/- 1
75 cm -35 +/- 2
100 cm -40 +/- 3

Excitation Path

Phase 1

Relative Positioning of the Galvo/Scan Lens to Objective/Tube Lens Subsystems

  1. Set the galvanometer voltage to 0V
