\label{fig:ShotSchem}  Electronics diagram for measuring Shot Noise, adapted from TEACHSPIN MANUAL  "Wiring diagram for the lamp and photo-diode combination, and the voltage-follower topology of the input stage of the pre-amp." \textbf{Are you SURE you used THIS CIRCUIT, and NOT the transimpedance amplifier in Figures 3.3a and Figures 3.3b (See pages 3 - 11 through 3-12. CHECK YOUR NOTES (and please tell me that you have that information in your notes, so that you actually know what you did). The transimpedance amplifier arrangement is superior to the voltage-follower arrangement, for the reasons discussed on page 3-10 . Which one you used makes a difference in terms of systematic error at low currents! }
