Equipment for Applied Optics Laboratory

9452287 Bibby我们将建立一个光学实验室，向从物理专业到电气和机械工程专业的一系列学生教授现代应用光学技术。该项目的技术重点是光学信号处理和干涉术的使用。将开发的实验将强调光学计量学中的干涉测量，包括全息术和光纤光学。两类学生将从这个项目中受益--选修光学相关实验课程的高级物理学生，以及其他学科的学生，如电气工程、机械工程和材料以及地质环境工程，他们试图学习应用光学作为解决工程各分支问题的工具。应用光学的最新进展提供了新的工具，这些学生可以使用这些工具来应对各种技术挑战。

9452287 Bibby We will develop an optics laboratory to teach modern applied optical techniques to a spectrum of students ranging from Physics majors to Electrical and Mechanical Engineering majors. The technical focus of this project is on optical signal processing and on the use of interferometry. The experiments that will be developed will emphasize interferometry in optical metrology and include holography and fiber optics. Two categories of students will benefit from this project-- upper-level Physics students, who are taking the main sequence of optics related lab courses, and students from other disciplines such as Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Materials, and Geo-Environmental Engineering, who seek to learn applied optics as a tool to solve problems in various branches of engineering. Recent advances in applied optics offer new tools which these students can use to approach a variety of technical challenges.
