Does anyone know what is in the CRC laser supplemental 2? Do any of these CRC handbooks contain the SILEX process? I believe it is a copper vapor laser that excites a highly tunable dye laser? How do they keep the copper vapor from coating on the glass tube and shorting it out? I would think there would be other lasers that could output the same frequencies as copper vapor without the major hassles that vaporized copper would cause?
I finally found a new job doing instruments and controls work so have been busy with that and the electronics PE exam prep as well as flying the pitts but as winter sets in and I have real income and a reimbursement account I am looking at getting a PDF set of the ISA instruments and controls 3 volume set, I am frankly tired of having massive reference manuals like that. Collectable books that are hard to find are fun but I dont know if the ISA books are that.
