a plethora of hene's

disma · May 17, 2009

I decided to test all my hene tubes today, I thought I had at least 40 of them, but there were only 33 in the box. Out of the 33, 8 of them were bad.

very cool

Would you be willing to sell any with a PSU?

disma · May 17, 2009

They may be all spoken for, I dont know yet, but if not, then I may sell them.

Asherz · May 17, 2009

Do you mind me asking how you have so many?

disma · May 17, 2009

It rains them from time to time, and I keep having to pick em up off the lawn, no just kidding. lol.I did a weeks worth computer work for them and some other laser stuff.

Man! If you could combine all those into one beam you'd get around 20mW!!!!!!!

It'd be nice to go outside when it's raining though and catch a few on your tongue. No wait.... That'd be stoopid. You might get one in the eye. No, wait again... THAT'S what laser goggles are for!!!

I did have several more in with other stuff. have tested them all now. there are 32. The aditional ones are a slightly different tube, have the same model #, they dont have the built in ballast resistor.

Nice collection. What PSU are you using?

disma · May 18, 2009

I was using a coherent ps, The label has been partialy removed, so I cant tell you the model no.

If anyone wants to buy one of these, get ahold of heruursciences. I have shipped them all to him in return for a fiber laser he has.

I'll trade you my wife for two of those working or not

disma · Jun 4, 2009

nah, if she doesnt like lasers, we would not get along! lol!

i made a spectrograph of a 546.8 HeNe laser showing the fluorescence in the cavity :

i don't remenber how to choose a particular wavelenght, is this with the lenght of the cavity ?

disma · Jun 6, 2009

Thats cool, I think the coating on the mirrors is what selects the wavelength, but it may also have to do with the cavity length.
