The present project proposes to study the feasibility of PoF in extreme conditions, using commercial components. In the first phase, we will set up a lab space with the necessary engineering controls to lower the safety classification of the required class 4 laser to a class 1. Then the receiver will be characterized at cryogenic temperatures (down to 77 K). By adding a power storage capacitor and an LDO regulator, this setup can be used to power an ASIC with a power-pulsing scheme, or a low-power digital SiPM. We will collaborate with universities for the aforementioned. Finally, we will work with national and international collaborators, and will investigate the possibility of characterizing the photodiode with respect to different irradiation doses compatible with e+e- colliders (> 100 krad).

Minutes- Students:
- We have a SULI Electrical Engineering undergrad (Around June - August '24)
- We have to look for a Physics grad student
- Discussion about the 80/20 cutting
- Marty found a nice ppt from TIPP2023 about a group that used our same laser
- We will buy also another "naked laser" without driver and ask for Bill Pellico about his design
- We will go for a very simple OPC Board design, as simple as possible

Business of the day: Zoom: https://stanford.zoom.us/j/6723568666?pwd=eGxoSEs0ODc2UDdjL0NWR3RNSUZ3dz09 after discussing with Alex, my suggestion for the agenda is: 1. Thanking Alex for his work!, discussing new PI role, discussing what we need for the smoothest transition 2. Information gained from talk to Bill Pellico from Fermilab 3. Information gained from attending POF Fermilab meeting (David Martinez Caicedo) 4. Updated idea on cryogenic setup (reusing open LN2 duwar) 5. Discuss proposal for redistribution of hours 6. Discuss possible summer student opportunities: SULI UG, Stanford UG, direct hire from University grad, GEM fellow grad 7. Quick prep for safety meeting this afternoon 8. Any other updates/business? (edited) -drawings received from Dune on their laser enclosure box and feedthrough clamshell design. -Example quote received for laser enclosure material (walls and 8020) Minutes - a new small testing TPC is being constructed by James for the DUNE project with delivery for June. This is a light-tight open dewer. This can be used as our cryogenic setup.
- Possible summer students, probably a good number would be 2 grad students, one physics and one engineering
- There is a promising MSU grad student through James
- Should we change vendor for the laser? let's create a set of questions for Bill Pellico
- drawings received from Dune on their laser enclosure box and feedthrough clamshell design.
