With support from the Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) Program, Profs. Michael A. Dvorak and Daniel Gregory of St. Cloud State University will develop a time-resolved laser based instrument for integration into the undergraduate chemistry research and curriculum experience. This is a collaborative venture between St. Cloud State University and Dakota Technologies Inc. (DTI). The overall goal of these studies is to create affordable and easy-to-operate modules that can be readily coupled to commercial spectrofluorimeters, and greatly expand their capabilities. This research will focus on the development of two spectroscopic modules: a nanosecond laser light source, which will allow recording of fluorescence decay data, and a transient absorption accessory, which will allow absorption studies. Undergraduate and graduate students will be heavily involved in the development phase of this project and will use the instrument in their research. Thus, the educational impact from the instrumentation for undergraduate chemistry training will be significant. Central to any chemist's training is the understanding of spectroscopic techniques that play a critical role in all areas of chemistry.

在主要研究仪器（MRI）项目的支持下，圣克劳德州立大学的Michael a . Dvorak和Daniel Gregory将开发一种基于激光的时间分辨仪器，用于本科化学研究和课程体验。这是圣克劳德州立大学和达科他科技公司（DTI）的合作项目。这些研究的总体目标是创建价格合理且易于操作的模块，可以很容易地与商业分光光度计耦合，并大大扩展其功能。这项研究将集中在两个光谱模块的开发上：一个纳秒激光光源，它将允许记录荧光衰减数据；一个瞬态吸收附件，它将允许吸收研究。本科生和研究生将大量参与该项目的开发阶段，并将在他们的研究中使用该仪器。因此，仪器对本科化学训练的教育影响将是显著的。任何化学家培训的核心是对光谱技术的理解，光谱技术在化学的各个领域都起着至关重要的作用。
