This project may require as much as 9 hours to complete. We recommend that you perform the experiments in two or more laboratory sessions. For example, power and astigmatic distance characteristics may be examined in the first session and the last two experiments (frequency and amplitude characteristics) may be performed in the second session. A Note of Caution All of the above comments refer to single-mode operation of the laser which is a very fragile device with respect to reflections and operating point. One must ensure that before performing measurements the laser is indeed operating single-mode. This can be realized if a single, broad fringe pattern is obtained or equivalently a good sinusoidal output is obtained from the Michelson interferometer as the path imbalance is scanned. If this is not the case, the laser is probably operating multimode and its current should be adjusted. If single-mode operation cannot be achieved by adjusting the current, then reflections may be driving the laser multimode, in which case the setup should be adjusted to minimize reflections. If still not operating single-mode, the laser diode may have been damaged and may need to be replaced. Warning The lasers provided in this project kit emit invisible radiation that can damage the human eye. It is essential that you avoid direct eye exposure to the laser beam. We recommend the use of protective eyewear designed for use at the laser wavelength of 780 nm. Read the Safety sections in the Laser Diode Driver Operating Manu
