This proposal provides funds for the purchase of a solid-state, frequency-stabilized, single-mode cw laser system that will have several applications within the context of an undergraduate research and education program. The laser will be used to pump a 12 femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser for the research purpose of probing and modifying collective motion of atoms in solids using shaped pulses, ultra-short pulses, and optical control feedback techniques based on genetic algorithms. The educational applications focus on optical trapping and acceleration of particles via a laser-tweezer technique, interferometry, and non-linear optics.

这项建议提供资金购买一个固态，频率稳定，单模连续激光系统，将有几个应用范围内的本科研究和教育计划。 该激光器将用于泵浦12飞秒钛：蓝宝石激光器，用于研究利用整形脉冲、超短脉冲和基于遗传算法的光学控制反馈技术探测和修改固体中原子的集体运动。 教育应用的重点是通过激光镊子技术，干涉测量和非线性光学的粒子的光捕获和加速。
