  102   Sun Oct 16 14:20:32 2022 Jennifer HritzGeneralOptical ContactingSamples after 2 weeks under pressureSince I was focusing on the hot plate code
and therefore did not need my weights, I
decided to leave them on top of my samples

  103   Mon Oct 17 23:17:25 2022 Jennifer HritzGeneralOptical ContactingTesting PWM code with actual samplesNow that I have (relatively) good PWM code,
I wanted to do my first real test with actual
samples. Since everything went smoothly,

  104   Tue Oct 18 19:33:38 2022 Jennifer HritzGeneralOptical ContactingSetting up thermocouplesFirstly, last night's heating did not
change the contacted surface area greatly,
but there is too many factors to speculate

  105   Wed Oct 19 21:51:10 2022 Jennifer HritzGeneralOptical ContactingThe trials and tribulations of the thermocouplesI intended to test the new thermocouple
set up today, but when I plugged them in,
both did not read a temperature. It took

  106   Thu Oct 20 22:43:05 2022 Jennifer HritzGeneralOptical ContactingWired the thermocouples backwardsSince the two devices are giving different
temperature readings, I would like to find
out if this imprecision is linear (e.g. they

doing prior (+180°C in 10 minutes)
but now with the (correctly wired) thermocouples

by getting rid of the feature that increases
the heating rate so I can isolate the base

would heat up if the heat was just on constantly
on for 5 minutes. In general, these tests

faster than the top plate, I decided to try
increasing the cycle period from 1000ms (1s)
