setup for molecular alignment
Casey and I recently set up most of the molecular alignment experiment. The nozzle was not at proper height using the stand from the Shtein group so we made one that can be adjusted to the proper height. A prism and wave plate, to adjust the beam power, need to be added yet and final alignment done before running the experiment. The next time Casey and I are in lab we should be able to do all of that.
