[SUCCESS] The 3f sideband cancellation seemed worked nicely.
- Beat effeciency improved: ~30% contrast (no need for amplification)
- PLL locked
- 3f modulation sideband was seen
- The attenuation of the 55MHz modulation and the delay time between the modulation source was adjusted to
have maximum reduction of the 3f sidebands as much as allowed in the setup. This adjustment has been done
at the frequency generation box at 1X2 rack.
- The measurement and receipe for the sideband cancellation come later.
- This means that I jiggled the modulation setup at 1X2 rack. Now the modulation setup was reverted to the original,
but just be careful to any change of the sensing behavior.
- The RF analyzer was returned to the control room.
- The HEPA speed was reduced from 100% (during the action on the table) to 40%. |
