Anybody still here?

I'm still here too

Yes, I'm here and preparing new post how to build ruby laser suitable for pulsed holography.

I can confirm that soda is working hard to make his pulsed ruby perfect!
By the way, as far as I know, unixboy succeeded in making his pulsed ND-YAG; unfortunately, I think he cannot follow the forum from China due to government restrictions.

Yup still here, have been busy with non holography stuff, just finished summer projects now...Time to head back to the lab!

Large (Really large) area heat sinks with no fan is the way to go. It takes a while for the table and the air to become still after you turn them off and if you forget to turn them on your laser may overheat. Also during the hologram the laser baseplate is slowly ramping up; this can cause a laser mode issue. Stable temperature is best. Phil

I still check this forum daily!

Maybe a bit of lighthearted off-topic discussion would help inspire some more activity on the forums overall.

I am here as well.
Quite new to this forum I mostly use it to search for info on older posts.
As for the cooling of my lasers I took a custom water-cooled approach

As an aside, something tells me a few key words in this post prompted the recent DDOS attack from China...

Guess that explains why i’ve Been having periodic problems logging in to Holography Forum lately...
