I want to combine basic questions which should be answered in our lab at first:
Contents
Electronic devices
- What is BNC? SMA? Difference?
- Constant voltage vs AC? CC or CV?
- How to work with scope? amplitude, frequency, coupling, trigger.
- signal generator? waveforms, frequencies, amplitudes, purposes, prices, possible substitutions
- spectrum analyzer. What is on the axis (typically)? What is RBW? What is VBW?
Electronics
- opamps
Basic optical elements
- BS or PBS (which polarization is reflected which is transmitted?)
- HWP or QWP
- AOM
- Piezo-actuator
- photodetectors
- Do not work in degenerate regime
Optical schemes
- telescope
- telescope with 3 lenses, focal distances sensitivity, why do we need it?
- mode cleaning
- beam angle adjustment (near and far field)
- mode matching of 2 beams
- homodyne detector alignment
- cavity alignment
Alkali metals
- Rubidium 87 level structure
- What is Failed to parse (Missing <code>texvc</code> executable. Please see math/README to configure.): 5^2P_{1/2}
Cold atoms
- Doppler effect
- Cooling force
- Why is it called molasses
- Why do we need magnetic coils?
- Doppler cooling limit
