Active Stark Atomic Spectroscopy (ASAS) method can be used to determine the electric field in the diode of an ion or electron accelerator as a function of position and time, including the positions of anode and cathode plasma emission surfaces (in order to obtain the effective accelerating gap). As possible probe beams, we suggest the use of lithium and sodium atoms. The diagnostic provides a m...

The superconducting diode effect in which electrical resistance is zero only one direction has recently been reported superconductors without inversion symmetry. Previous studies investigated the nonreciprocity of critical current, but little known about rectification when AC currents are applied. Herein, we examined characteristics a non-centrosymmetric Nb/V/Ta artificial superlattice under cu...

When photon-counting detectors are calibrated in the presence of a background signal, deadtime effects can be significant and must be carefully accounted for to achieve high accuracy. We present a method for separating the correlated signal from the background signal that appropriately handles deadtime effects. This method includes consideration of pulse timing and afterpulsing issues that aris...

Operating a laser diode in an extended cavity which provides frequency-selective feedback is a very effective method of reducing the laser’s linewidth and improving its tunability. We have developed an extremely simple laser of this type, built from inexpensive commercial components with only a few minor modifications. A 780 nm laser built to this design has an output power of 80 mW, a linewidt...

Design and fabrication of a low cost sensor for measuring electric field over a broad range of electromagnetic (EM) frequency is presented. The electric field probe consists of an electrically short dipole antenna and diode detector connected to an instrumentation amplifier via a high impedance line. The rectified diode voltage is conveyed over the high impedance line for real time data acquisi...
