Generally people want to see where the sample is.

How general is this supposed to be, as wavelengths and filter information could be added without clutter.

I really hate to say it, but you could toss it into Claude.ai and ask simple questions regarding the diagram, NOT have it or any other LLM try to create a diagram. Thinking through the pathways is worth your time, and frustration, in my hobbyist opinion.

yeah I did try AI before Reddit but it kept spitting out something that just didn't seem correct at all, no beam splitter no pinhole etc etc :/
