Purchase of Instrumentation for Laser Spectroscopy Studies

这份来自化学研究仪器项目的奖金将帮助密歇根州立大学化学系购买激光设备。该设备将用于以下研究活动：1。模型和生物系统中的光诱导电荷分离2。仿生模型化合物中的电荷分离电子转移非绝热电荷分离电子转移的溶剂动力学电荷分离电子转移配合物特定溶剂化的实验与理论研究质子耦合电荷分离电子转移激光器发射出一束狭窄的相干、强而近单色的电磁辐射。这种辐射在化学中用于研究广泛的主题，从蛋白质和核酸的动力学到光电子转移过程，从界面化学到皮秒脉冲整形。激光在光学、通信和工程方面也很有用。

This award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation Program will help the Department of Chemistry at Michigan State University purchase laser equipment. This equipment will be used in the following research activities: 1. Light Induced Charge Separation in Model and Biological Systems 2. Charge Separated Electron Transfer in Biomimetic Model Compounds 3. Solvent Dynamics of Non-Adiabatic Charge Separated Electron Transfer 4. Experimental and Theoretical Approaches to Specific Solvation of Charge Separated Electron Transfer Complexes 5. Proton Coupled Charge Separated Electron Transfer Lasers emit a narrow beam of coherent, powerful and nearly monochromatic electromagnetic radiation. This radiation is used in Chemistry to study a broad range of subjects, from the dynamics of proteins and nucleic acids to photoelectron transfer processes, and from interfacial chemistry to picosecond pulse shaping. Lasers are also useful in optics, communications, and engineering.
