A laboratory test setup is built to transfer and actively stabilize an ultrastable signal, obtained from a laser with sub-Hz linewidth, trough a 5 km long fiber link. The fiber noise is measured and compensated via a feedback loop acting on an AOM that can change the frequency (and therefore the phase) …

Laboratory research was done on flat glass substrates to study the effect that brine salinity has on adhesion mechanisms between oil and clay particles. This is done by evaporating a small clay suspension droplet (6 ul) on a glass slide that leaves a thin layer of clay upon which oil can be attached. …
