Imaging objective mounting
Assemble imaging objective mount
Gluing kinematic mount
Assembling primary dichroic cap
Putting in spring plungers and set screws
Emission splitting dichroic assembly
PMT assembly
The goal is to couple the lens onto the PMT face with oil
Seal the edge of the PMT face to the PMT housing with 5 min epoxy - careful not to soil the plate above the photocathode
Add 30 - 50 ul of high viscosity oil
Place condensor lens on oil. Make sure there are no bubbles and carefully remove overflow oil from the housing.
Place a thin ring of quick seal (WPI) on the PMT housing around the lens
Assemble alignment jigs
Alignment jig cage assembly
Imaging objective alignment jig mount
Remote focus objective assembly
The polarizing beam splitter (pbs) needs to be glued to the remote focus objective mount
The PBS needs to have the three sides marked by arrows facing the beam.
The beam needs to be flush with the alignment edges on the mount
The UV transmission of the cube is low, so be sure to expose the glue to UV for ~ 2 minutes or so
Mount the quarter wave plate as shown in the model.
Mount the remote focus objective (using 2.5 mm captive screws - Mouser 761-m0277-ss)
Left, remote focus objective mount, quarter waveplate holder, quarter waveplate, and polarizing beamsplitter. Right, components mounted on remote focus mount, including remote focus objective.
