We present a novel Rotational Anisotropy Nonlinear Harmonic Generation (RA-NHG) apparatus based primarily upon reflective optics. The data acquisition scheme used here allows for fast accumulation of RA-NHG traces, mitigating low frequency noise from laser drift, while permitting real-time adjustment of acquired signals with significantly more data points per unit angle rotation of the optics than other RA-NHG setups. We discuss the design and construction of the optical and electronic components of the device and present example data taken on a GaAs test sample at a variety of wavelengths. The RA-second harmonic generation data for this sample show the expected four-fold rotational symmetry across a broad range of wavelengths, while those for RA-third harmonic generation exhibit evidence of cascaded nonlinear processes possible in acentric crystal structures.
We describe a novel scheme of detecting rotational anisotropy second harmonic generation (RA-SHG) signals using a lock-in amplifier referenced to a fast scanning RA-SHG apparatus. The method directly measures the $n^{th}$ harmonics of the scanning fr
A periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) waveguide-based single-pixel up-conversion infrared spectrometer was demonstrated. Sum-frequency generation between a 1.5 micrometer band scanning pump laser and a 1.3 micrometer band signal generated visib
We build a resonant fiber optic gyro based on Kagome hollow-core fiber. A semi-bulk cavity architecture based on a 18-m-long Kagome fiber permits to achieve a cavity finesse of 23 with a resonance linewidth of 700 kHz. An optimized Pound-Drever-Hall
In this paper we describe the development and first tests of a neutron spectrometer designed for high flux environments, such as the ones found in fast nuclear reactors. The spectrometer is based on the conversion of neutrons impinging on $^6$Li into
A general-purpose all-fiber spectrometer is demonstrated to overcome the trade-off between spectral resolution and bandwidth. By integrating a wavelength division multiplexer with five multimode optical fibers, we have achieved 100 nm bandwidth with
