1. A heat sink assembly, comprising:
an alignment body, for aligning a crystalline orientation of a crystal rod with a physical orientation of the heat sink assembly, with an opening configured to receive a crystal rod,
wherein the opening is configured to maintain a crystalline orientation of the crystal rod relative to an orientation of the alignment body;
a first cooling stack,
wherein the first cooling stack includes a first cutout to receive the crystal rod and the alignment body; and
a second cooling stack,
wherein the second cooling stack includes a second cutout to receive the crystal rod and the alignment body, and
wherein the first cooling stack and the second cooling stack are configured to mate and at least partially cover above and below the crystal rod and the alignment body.
