Applications of Lasers in Chemistry

本项目的目的是引进高层次的本科生 詹姆斯麦迪逊大学的化学系学生对激光在 化学的各个方面。 仪器分析课程， 物理化学、生物化学和本科生研究 通过这个项目将增加机会。 包括新的 实验涉及拉曼光谱，定期，偏振，和相位 灵敏发射光谱，多光子效应，激光 蒸发和热透镜。 这些技术将 通过收购Nd：YAG和He/Cd两种激光器， 单元，加上合适的配件选择。 激光已经有了一个 对现代化学实践产生了重大影响。 这个项目 将使学生接触到许多重要的化学应用， 激光

The aim of this project is to introduce upper-level undergraduate chemistry students at James Madison University to the uses of lasers in various aspects of chemistry. Courses in instrumental analysis, physical chemistry, and biochemistry, and undergraduate research opportunities will be enhanced through this project. Included are new experiments involving Raman spectroscopy, regular, polarized, and phase sensitive emission spectroscopy, multiple photon effects, laser vaporization, and thermal lensing. These techniques will be incorporated through the acquisition of two lasers, Nd:YAG and He/Cd units, plus a suitable selection of accessories. Lasers have had a significant impact on the practice of modern chemistry. This project will expose students to many of the important chemical applications of lasers.
