Repository Description
Last Edited: June 21, 2023

Github repository for hardware and software interfacing used in the Hussein Ultrafast Plasma Science group at the University of Alberta.

Currently three projects are in active development

Viron Laser System

Development of communication protocal to control the Quantel Viron Laser System for Portable LIBS.

-- Developed by Liam Droog and Shubho Mohajan

LIBS

Controls for automated laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) experiments. Communication between Stanford trigger box, Stellarnet and Thorlabs spectrometers, and linear translation stages.

-- Developed by Shubho Mohajan and Ying Wan

Newport XPS

Development of linear translation stations controlled by the Newport XPS D4 system.

-- Developed by Nick Beier

pyFROG

Development of ultrafast pulse measurement Frequency Resolved Optical Gating (FROG) diagnostic for use with the Spitfire laser system. Currently the software controls the Newport XPS and a Thorlabs CCS200 spectrometer

-- Developed by Nick Beier

DAQ

Development of real-time data acquisition and analysis scripts. Currently fielded at the ALLS facility in Quebec. Watchdog scripts are used to pull data from remote desktops before being combined into a single file system.

--Developed by Nick Beier

Tektronix TBS2000B Oscilloscope

Communication with a TBS2000B oscilloscope to read out nanosecond pulse pulse shape and energy information from a photodiode during experiments
