Hi All,
Just "discovered" this forum while searching for info about DIY raman spectroscopy, and seeing all of the interesting contents here, I figured I should subscribe immediately!
About me, I have been playing around with lasers and optics or quite a while. My main interest lies in performing measurements with light/lasers. I also do some electronics and programming and enjoy repairing broken test gear I bought on Ebay.
So far I have built a laser interferometer (as described on Sam's FAQ ), repaired a few spectrometers (both NIR and VIS), and I am in the process of automating and older monochromator. Over the years I have acquired quite a few lasers (some red and green HeNe, some red and blue diode laser from coherent, an Argon laser , many IR fiber lasers removed from telecom equipment,....). I am also in the process of trying to repair a Jenoptic smaragd Q-swithed laser hoping to one day build a laser engraving system with it, but as with probably many around here, to many projects, too less time.
I suffer from TEA (test gear acquisition syndrome) and probably some similar laser related diseases . This forum will probably not cure any of these
, but that is ok for me.
