The Laser Electro-Optics Technology Department at Springfield Technical Community College (STCC) is enhancing its curriculum by acquiring an Optical Test & Measurement Lab with assistance from the National Science Foundation. The major instrument is the Zygo Mark IVxp Phase Measuring Interferometer. Interferometers have long been used for both macro and micro surface characterization in the fabrication and assembly of precision optical components and systems. The Zygo Mark IVxp Interferometer System represents the state-of-the-art in optical surface evaluation and is being used increasingly in a variety of measurement purposes in manufacturing and quality assurance. Access to such equipment by students is enriching the already diverse laser electro-optics offerings at STCC, one of but a handful of colleges in the country with a laser major.With the opportunity to engage in hands-on applications employing "real world" hardware in a laboratory setting, STCC students are being significantly better prepared to continue their studies at the university level and/or to pursue their technical careers in the private or government sectors.

斯普林菲尔德激光电光技术系 技术社区学院（STCC）正在加强其课程 通过获得光学测试测量实验室的帮助， 来自国家科学基金会。主要工具是 Zygo Mark IVxp相位测量干涉仪。 干涉仪长期以来用于宏观和微观测量。 制造和组装中的表面表征 精密光学元件和系统。Zygo Mark IVxp 干涉仪系统代表了最先进的 光学表面评估，并越来越多地用于 在制造和质量方面的各种测量目的 保证。学生使用这些设备的机会丰富了 STCC已经多样化的激光电光产品， 全国只有少数几所大学用激光 专业。有机会参与实践应用 在实验室环境中采用“真实的世界”硬件， 学生们正在做好更充分的准备， 他们在大学一级的学习和/或继续他们的 在私营或政府部门的技术职业。
