Renovation of Labs at the Center for Ultrafast Optical Science

9313466 Mourou该奖项将支持密歇根大学超快光学科学科学与技术中心实验室空间的改造。这个改造项目将把以前用于生物物理研究的大约4000平方英尺的实验室空间改造成可用于光学研究的空间，方法是对其进行重新配置，增加更新的电气支架，为大型框架激光、现代空调、天花板、橱柜和更换地板增加冷却。该STC致力于K-12教育和大学教育，为学生提供进行激光光学实验的机会，并在很小的时候就接触到这种类型的研究环境。这家STC也与行业有很强的联系，与20家公司合作，它已经剥离了3家小公司，它的5款激光产品已经找到了进入市场的途径。这个翻新项目将直接影响到大约70名研究人员，他们正在从事一个结合了物理、化学、工程和医学的跨学科项目。这一研究空间现代化项目将支持中国关键技术领域--超快光学--的活动。***

9313466 Mourou This award will support the renovation of laboratory space for the Science and Technology Center for Ultrafast Optical Science at the University of Michigan. This renovation project will convert about 4000 square feet of lab space, previously used for biophysical research, into usable space for optical research by reconfiguring it, adding updated electrical supports, adding cooling for large frame lasers, modern air conditioning, ceiling, cabinetry, and changing the floors. This STC has a strong commitment to K-12 education and college education and offers students the opportunity to perform experiments in laser optics and to have contact at an early age with this type of research environment. This STC also has strong ties to industry while working with 20 companies, it has spun off three small companies and five of it's laser products have already found their way to the market place. This renovation project will directly impact about 70 researchers working on an interdisciplinary program that combines physics, chemistry, engineering and medicine. This research space modernization project will bolster the activities in a critical technology area for the country, ultrafast optics. ***
