0076473ToulouseThis award from the instrumentation for materials research program in DMR will allow Leghigh University to acquire a multipurpose high-power fiber optic system, which can be operated in the CW or pulsed mode and capable of producing picosecond or femtosecond pulses. The system will significantly enhance present research capabilities and broaden the impact of a recently acquired GOALI research grant. The Lehigh facility will be expanded and developed to op a full-scale, state-of-the-art Fiber Optics Laboratory. This laboratory will serve: (1) to uncover the relationship between the glass microscopics and optical nonlinearities and provide a the necessary link between fundamental glass research and fiber optics; (2) to train PhD level graduate students in photonics (these are in very short supply at the present) who understand optics as well as materials; (3) as a link between the university and industry; (4) as a pole for experimental studies in materials for integrated optics and optical communications at Lehigh.

这份来自DMR材料研究仪器项目的合同将允许莱格海大学获得一个多用途的高功率光纤系统，该系统可以在连续波或脉冲模式下工作，能够产生皮秒或飞秒脉冲。该系统将大大提高目前的研究能力，并扩大最近获得的GOALI研究资助的影响。利哈伊工厂将扩大和发展成为一个全面的、最先进的光纤实验室。该实验室将：(1)揭示玻璃显微镜与光学非线性之间的关系，为玻璃基础研究与光纤之间提供必要的联系；(2)培养既懂光学又懂材料的光子学博士级研究生（目前供不应求）；(3)作为大学与产业界的纽带；(4)作为里海大学集成光学和光通信材料实验研究的中心。这份来自DMR材料研究仪器项目的合同将允许利哈伊大学获得一个多用途的高功率光纤系统，该系统可以在连续波或脉冲模式下工作，能够产生皮秒或飞秒脉冲。该系统将大大提高目前的研究能力，并扩大GOALI研究补助金的影响。
