SHG/Vapor Cell breadboard

[Briana, Ian, Torrey]

On SHG setup, all optics (including beam dumps and lenses) except the waveguide are temporarily put in place (not aligned). It is slightly cramped so we may need to switch to a bigger board. 

Moved the vapor cell scheme onto the 1.5 ft by 2 ft breadboard, which was previously adjacent to the 2 ft by 2 ft breadboard. The 1.5 by 2 is now where the 2 by 2 breadboard was and the SHG setup moved to where the 1.5 by 2 breadboard was. Items on the 1.5 by 2 were cleared off/returned to their labelled drawers and certain optics (three next to the vacuum component on the side towards the computer) will be disassembled and returned to the drawers since they are not in use. The vapor cell scheme can fit on this breadboard (see new schematic). We are in need of 4 more 780 nm mirrors, which already have a quote in. General object locations have been marked on this board. The fiber couplings will be mounted alongside other optics in the vapor cell schematic tomorrow. The 2 ft by 2 ft breadboard has been placed somewhere (I don't know where but would guess in the left corner of the lab near the giant materials tray drawer- this may be a question for Ian).
