**Achievements/Observations**
- Collected some NQO1 data
- Had some hours to play around with HV with the old device. We observed a few things:
- Without HV we could get close to 10 hz, but with jitter of +/-3hz
- With HV at 1.2V, we clearly saw a strong effect on the droplet hz, could go from 10 Hz to 20 Hz, but the problem of the jitter remains, this looks like the main issue have the droplets frequency under control
- We observed that with water the diode signal was one single peak, whereas with sample there were a few peaks for the whole droplet width, we tested and it indeed seems that the crystals in the droplets either refracted away or absorbed a portion of the beam to yield that diode laser peak profile... |
