Recap of the last few days. I ordered a bunch of stuff: some 4W RF amplifiers for higher power SiO2 based AOMs, an 80MHz AOM, an 85MHz high-power surplus AOM similar to what we already have picked up, a 210MHz AOM for our pump beam, some 1055nm specific laser diodes, lots of gear. Have built some misc stuff in the last few days: a box for storing the PCFs, am helping get Eric started with that stuff. A mount to adapt an AOM to a mirror mount. A plexi box to protect the output fiber of the fiber amplifier.
As far as actual science, i set up a double-passed 85MHz AOM on the green laser. This is what we intend to scan to try and observe spectral hole-burning. Nick is working on the RF source control via GPIB. Hopefully we can observe a nice narrow feature.

Nick and I took some absorption data; i have it in my notebook. Removing the lens definitely helped.
