Western Washington University will acquire instrumentation which will provide students in our Optics Concentration with hands-on exposure to modern methods of laser spectroscopy, optical detection, signal processing, and computer-based data acquisition. The Physics Department will purchase a PRA LN120C2 Combination Nitrogen/Dye Laser System, a Stanford Research Systems Model SR400 Gated Photon Counter, and an IBM PC/XT Compatible Computer. These instruments form a versatile combination which will enable the students to perform a wide variety of laser spectroscopy experiments in absorption, fluorescence, Raman, opto-acoustic, opto-galvanic, and photothermal deflection spectroscopy. In addition, the nitrogen/dye laser system will serve as a teaching tool for the study of these important laser types. This project is significant because it brings to the undergraduate laboratory, devices and techniques which are routinely used in graduate, government, and industrial research laboratories. It will enable students to understand and utilize laser spectroscopic techniques for the analysis of matter at an earlier stage of their careers. Finally, it will serve other institutions through the publication of student lab experiments which will be developed. Western Washington University will match the NSF grant with an equal amount of funds.

西华盛顿大学将获得仪器， 为学生在我们的光学浓度与动手接触， 现代激光光谱方法，光学探测，信号 处理和基于计算机的数据采集。 物理系将购买PRA LN 120 C2组合 氮/染料激光系统，斯坦福大学研究系统型号SR 400 门控光子计数器和IBM PC/XT兼容计算机。 这些工具形成了一个多功能的组合， 学生将在中进行各种激光光谱实验 吸收、荧光、拉曼、光声、光电流和 光热偏转光谱学 此外，氮/染料 激光系统将作为这些研究的教学工具 重要的激光器类型。 这个项目意义重大，因为它给本科生带来了 实验室，设备和技术，这是经常使用的， 研究生，政府和工业研究实验室。 它将 使学生能够理解和利用激光光谱 在其早期阶段分析物质的技术 careers. 最后，它将通过 学生实验室的实验将被开发。 西华盛顿大学将与美国国家科学基金会的赠款相匹配， 资金的数量。
