Modern Optics, Optical Technology, and Spectroscopy Laboratory

现代光学知识对许多科学技术领域的工作者越来越重要。因此，俄勒冈大学物理系致力于在光学和光学物理领域发展一个强大的研究和教育项目。在过去的两年中，该系增加了三位专攻光学物理各个方面的终身教职人员。新计划的一个组成部分是发展一个专门研究现代光学、光学技术和光谱学的本科教学实验室。组成该实验室的十项实验由积极从事光学研究的教师设计并教授。指定的设备几乎无一例外地与从事光学相关工作的真实研究和开发实验室中实际发现的设备类型相同。顺利完成本课程的学生不仅将获得广泛的光学原理知识，而且将精通光学的实践。他们还将接触到简单但重要的技术，如在示波器上表示物理过程，以及实验室设备的计算机控制。

Knowledge of modern optics is increasingly important to workers in many areas of science and technology. Accordingly, the University of Oregon Physics Department has committed itself to the development of a strong program of research and education in the fields of optics and optical physics. Over the last two years, three tenure-level faculty members specializing in various aspects of optical physics have been added to the Department. An integral part of the new program is the development of an undergraduate teaching laboratory specializing in modern optics, optical technology, and spectroscopy. The ten experiments, of which the laboratory is composed, have been designed and will be taught by faculty actively involved in optics research. Equipment specified is almost without exception of the same type that is actually found in real research and development laboratories engaged in optics related work. Students successfully completing the course will have acquired not only a wide knowledge of the principles of optics but will also be well versed in the practice of optics. They will also gain exposure to simple yet important techniques such as the representation of physical processes on oscilloscopes, and the computer control of laboratory apparatus.
