The Tools for Studying Light
From its very beginnings, the Spectroscopy Laboratory has recognized
that world-class research requires state-of-the-art equipment. As
a result, the Laboratory strives to maintain a diverse collection
of laser systems for the purpose of fundamental and applied research
in modern optics and spectroscopy. In addition, the Spectroscopy
Laboratory houses the Laser Biomedical Research Center (LBRC), an NIH supported center whose facilities are open for biological and biomedicine research.
As an organizational unit, the Spectroscopy Laboratory consists
of a collection of main and auxiliary laboratories, having one of
the largest and most diverse collections of lasers and instrumentation
in an academic environment. The following list describes the various
facilities and equipment available, as well as a brief overview
of the ongoing research objectives. The principal investigator responsible
for each laboratory is indicated.
