Although
I spend most of my time teaching Physics, I try to spend some time
doing research in my field of interest, namely, photodetachment
of negative atomic and molecular ions.
Above is an 18W frequency doubled (532nm) Nd-Yag laser.
The laser beam interacts with a negative ion beam inside the chamber
shown.
