End of Project Reflection
-While were not able to reach our initial goals due to a supply issue with the gas we needed for our excimer laser we created a new set of goals at met those. As a result we were able to produce the fluorescence spectra of a cesium iodide scintillator crystal using a 405 nm laser. As for the pacing I felt that it was appropriate.
-After completing the experiment I learned a lot about, excimer lasers, laser induced fluorescence, gas handling, and python.
-My future plans will not include working on the project, but it has given me a lot of good experience and I would definitely recommend to to another student. My only change I can think of is that the monochromator portion of the project felt almost like a separate project so maybe next time if the main project is split into two teams they could work a little closer together.
-I presented our results at the OSA Frontiers in Optics and Laser Science 2015 convention.
