Optical Spectroscopy Laboratory for Undergraduates

密苏里州的大学将增加现代光谱学实验的光学实验室的上师光和现代光学课程。该设备还将用于现代物理和本科研究的演示目的。原子、分子和固态光谱将被研究。 两台现代化的光谱仪将在室温和低温下进行拉曼和荧光/光致发光研究。光谱仪将被设置为使得四个实验可以在对准的最小变化或没有变化的情况下进行。这一特点是在有限的时间实验课至关重要。 将完成一个缺少几个部件的法布里-珀罗三通干涉仪，并将用于进行布里渊散射和激光模式研究。 将建立一个傅里叶变换光谱仪来研究液体和固体中的振动模式，并将成为拉曼和法布里-珀罗光谱仪的补充工具。 所有上述仪器将由计算机控制。目前，我们的光学实验室缺乏上述所有仪器，我们只能进行手动采集数据的实验，因此无法进行强度测量和与理论进行比较。上述仪器将提供课堂上学习的理论和实验室中完成的实验之间的更紧密的联系。

9451475 Chandrasekhar The University of Missouri will add modern spectroscopy experiments to the Optics Laboratory for the upper division Light and Modern Optics course. The equipment will also be used for demonstration purposes in Modern Physics and for Undergraduate Research. Atomic Molecular and Solid State Spectra will be studied. Two modern spectrometers will be set up to perform Raman and fluorescence/photoluminescence studies at room and low temperatures. The spectrometers will be set up so that the four experiments can be performed with minimal or no change in the alignment. This feature is critical in a limited time laboratory class. A Fabry Perot triple pass interferometer which lacks a few components will be completed and will be used to perform Brillouin scattering and laser mode studies. A Fourier transform spectrometer will be set up to study the vibrational modes in liquids and solids, and will be a complementary tool to the Raman and Fabry Perot spectrometers. All the above instruments will be computer controlled. At present our Optics laboratory lacks all of the above instruments, and we are able only to perform experiments where data is taken manually, so that intensity measurements and comparison with theory is not possible. The instrumentation above will provide a closer link between the theory studied in class and the experiments done in the lab.
