An Undergraduate Photonics Laboratory

该学院拥有工程技术专业学生1，200多名，工程科学专业学生约200名。该系正在通过引进目前用于激光研究的仪器来提高有关课程的现代光学部分。通过实验室实验，学生获得的原则和测量技术的研究和使用激光的理解。 教学形式是传统的实验室，仔细的原型设计导致写作，确保学生最大限度地学习。该实验室以激光和信号传输原理为中心。钛：蓝宝石和二极管激光器的使用为学生提供了独特的机会，在使用最先进的技术的同时学习这些原理。光纤通信信号的调制和解调以及声光和电光调制的实验室练习与现有实验室相结合，以完成适用于工程和技术学生的光子学实验室。根据该计划开发的特定实验室应在激光原理及其应用方面为其他实验室提供模型。

This college has over 1,200 students in the engineering technologies and about 200 in engineering science. This department is upgrading the modern optics component of the appropriate courses by introducing current instrumentation for the study of lasers. Through laboratory experiments, students gain an understanding of the principles and measurement techniques involved in the study and use of lasers. The pedagogical format is that of a traditional laboratory, with careful prototyping leading to writeups that ensure maximum learning by the students. The laboratory centers around the principles of lasers and signal transmission. The use of Ti:Sapphire and Diode lasers affords the students the unique opportunity to study these principles while working with state-of-the-art technology. Laboratory exercises on the modulation and demodulation of signals for fiber-optic communication, and on the acousto-optic and electro-optic modulation, are combined with existing laboratories to complete the set of photonics laboratories applicable to both engineering and technology students. The particular laboratories developed under this program should provide a model for other laboratories on the principles of lasers and their application.
