9450962 Murnane We propose to develop a new laboratory course within the Physics Department at Washington State University, titled "Applications of Optics." This course, which will complement two other upper-division laboratory courses, will give students a broad background in experimental optics. Its goal will be to acquaint students with the real-world consequences of fundamental optical phenomena, and to expose the students to applications of optics in physics, chemistry, and engineering. The laboratory will be based on a femtosecond laser facility, which will enable us to translate recent results from our research lab at WSU into the undergraduate curriculum, where it will be used to better illustrate concepts of coherence, dispersion, nonlinear optics and fundamentals of quantum mechanics. For these applications we will develop a completely novel set of experiments with femtosecond lasers for undergraduate laboratories.

我们建议在华盛顿州立大学物理系开设一门新的实验室课程，题目是“光学的应用”。“这门课程，这将补充其他两个高年级的实验室课程，将给学生一个广泛的背景实验光学。它的目标是让学生熟悉基本光学现象的现实后果，并让学生接触光学在物理，化学和工程中的应用。该实验室将基于飞秒激光设施，这将使我们能够将我们在WSU的研究实验室的最新成果转化为本科课程，在那里它将被用来更好地说明相干性，色散，非线性光学和量子力学基础的概念。 对于这些应用，我们将开发一套全新的实验与飞秒激光本科实验室。
