A Curriculum in Chemical Microscopy

9351895 Engstrom一个本科实验室教学的化学显微镜设施正在开发中。 偏振光显微镜被用于本科课程的早期部分，而现有的部门设备被用于上师工作。 整个课程包括几个实验与光学化学显微镜，其次是红外显微光谱，荧光显微镜和扫描隧道显微镜。 实验在普通化学（包括“专业”和“非专业”），有机化学，物理化学和仪器分析中进行。 偏振光显微镜的其他用途正在学生研究中，由地质学学生，并在化学高中推广计划。 化学显微镜计划为学生提供了以独特的方式可视化物质和反应的机会，同时使他们接触到各种各样的问题和与市场相关的材料。 ***

9351895 Engstrom A chemical microscopy facility for undergraduate laboratory instruction is being developed. Polarized light microscopes are being used in the early part of the undergraduate curriculum, while existing departmental equipment is being used in upper division work. The entire curriculum consists of several experiments with optical chemical microscopy, followed by infrared microspectro-scopy, fluorescence microscopy, and scanning tunneling microscopy. The experiments are carried out in general chemistry (both "majors" and "non-majors"), organic chemistry, physical chemistry, and instrumental analysis. Additional use of the polarized light microscopes is being made in student research, by geology students, and in a chemistry high school outreach program. The program in chemical microscopy is providing students with the opportunity to visualize matter and reactions in unique ways, while exposing them to a wide variety of problems and materials relevant to the marketplace. ***
