Overview
The process to automate the process

4. Imaging Process
White light is produced, and monochromator filters it to output a single desired monochromatic wavelength of light.
The beam of light is shined on the nanoplasmonic sensor, and the camera takes a picture of what is seen in the lens.
This image is then processed in a spectrometer to view Transmission Intensity across a wavelengths of a single device.

5. Techniques
Implementing “Python” to create a class that uses functions to control the Monochromator machine
Creating a class that uses functions to control the QImaging camera of the microscope
Setting up an algorithm to take repeated desired amount of data to be analyzed
X40 lens

6. Progress The monochromator class has been implemented.
Still need to write the implementation to the Camera class.
In progress of developing the algorithm to control the entire experimental process.

7. End Goals
The end goals are to be able to automate the process of setting up the wavelength and then taking an image, which would save much time.
Hopefully then be able to implement Matlab to process the image to get meaningful data.
