Chemical Applications of Lasers Workshop

詹姆斯麦迪逊大学将为学院和大学教师提供为期一周的研讨会。研讨会将集中讨论激光及其在解决化学问题中的应用。该课程将包括为期一周的集中接触激光技术的理论和实际应用，以满足化学所有分支感兴趣的领域。本课程将包括(1)关于激光基础及相关主题的讲座，(2)阐述讲座中所述原理的实验室实验，(3)涉及激光在化学有趣问题中的当前应用的讲座和实验室实验，以及(4)参与参与者感兴趣的特殊项目的机会。其中的技术将被转移到参与者的家庭机构。这个研讨会的一个主要特点是提供激光技术的接触，在一个适当的水平上纳入本科水平。除了国家科学基金会的资金外，参与者所在机构将提供约25%的差旅费。

James Madison University will offer a week-long workshop for college and university faculty. The workshop will focus on lasers and their application to solving chemical problems. The offering will consist of a one week intensive exposure to both the theory and practical application of laser technology to areas of interest to all branches of chemistry. The course will include (1) lectures on the fundamentals of lasers and related topics, (2) laboratory experiments to illustrate the principles presented in lectures, (3) lectures and laboratory experiments dealing with current applications of lasers to chemically interesting problems, and (4) an opportunity to engage in a special project of interest to the participant, the technology of which will be transportable to the participant's home institution. A major feature of this workshop is to provide exposure to laser technology at a level appropriate for incorporation at the undergraduate level. In addition to the NSF funds, participants' institutions will provide about 25% in travel expenses.
