    keyword=Target Laser 1/4 plate calibration with absorption spectrum

    Target pumping Laser 1/4 plates are calibrated to maximize absorption 
    peak @ 795.1nm ( = minimize absorption) 
    
    The initial state is 
    * Holding Field = Transvers -
    * Spin = -
    * 3 x Comet Laser 
    * He3 Position, no beam
    
    The initial 1/4 plate angle is 
    Motor # 0338 = 9 Degree
    Motor # 1474 = -81.2 Degree
    Absorption Peak = 10250 (arbitary unit)
    
    optimized 1/4 plate angle is 
    Motor # 0338 = 3 Degree
    Motor # 1474 = -84 Degree
    Absorption Peak = 10750 (arbitary unit)
    
    Finialized 1/4 plate angle is 
    Motor # 0338 = 6.5 Degree
    Motor # 1474 = -83.5 Degree
    Absorption Peak = 10600 (arbitary unit)
    
    optimized 1/4 plate angle is not used because it's outside range of 
    limit switch (6 to 10 Degree or -84 to -80 Degree).
    
    If the equlibrium polarization during following production is not 
    higher than before, we can always fall back to original 1/4plate 
    settings at any time.
