Optical Spectroscopy and Magnetic Resonance in UndergraduatePhysics

通过这个项目，新的光谱学和磁共振实验被引入到本科物理课程中，作为物理专业创新的高年级实验室课程的一部分。 该课程（光谱学和磁共振）研究分子和固体中的电子跃迁，分子中的振动和旋转跃迁，以及磁共振光谱学。 学生接触到最重要的实验技术，在可见光，红外线和磁共振光谱。 本课程的第一部分介绍吸收光谱学、雷射诱导萤光与光致萤光。 在第二部分中，学生将学习傅里叶变换红外光谱和拉曼光谱。 第三分量引入脉冲（即，傅立叶变换）核磁共振。 本课程具有重要的跨学科组成部分。 本课程中探索的实验和技术是物理学，物理化学和生物物理学的核心，本课程中开发的实验可供化学和生物学学生使用。

Through this project new experiments in optical spectroscopy and magnetic resonance are introduced into the undergraduate physics curriculum as part of an innovative upper-division laboratory course for physics majors. The course (Spectroscopy and Magnetic Resonance) investigates electronic transitions in molecules and solids, vibrational and rotational transitions in molecules, and magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Students are exposed to the most important experimental techniques in visible, infrared, and magnetic-resonance spectroscopy. The first component of the course introduces absorption spectroscopy, laser-induced fluorescence, and photoluminescence. In the second section, students investigate Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. The third component introduces pulsed (i.e., Fourier transform) nuclear magnetic resonance. This course has a significant interdisciplinary component. The experiments and techniques explored in this course are central to physics, physical chemistry, and biophysics, and the experiments developed in this course are available to students in chemistry and biology.
