FMCG/Magnetometer optimization: Difference between revisions

'''Probe optimization is done very similarly to the pump optimization. The only difference is the '''Scan Probe''' light must be selected in the '''Laser Scan v1.1.vi''' program.

The probe response is a convolution of the faraday rotation signal (which peaks near the resonance line) and the probe absorption, which hits a minimum near the resonance line. Generally this function will optimize near roungly 75% transmission. Again, it is unlikely all magnetometers will optimize at exactly the same point in detuning space, but choose a detuning that allows all channels to perform adequately. Hit the '''Utility/Local''' button to disable computer control, then set the detuning appropriately.
