This course provides further development of the necessary theoretical background and an introduction to the spectroscopic methods applied to the study of molecular structure and species identification. Topics include electronic and vibrational energy levels of polyatomic molecules, optical selection rules, absorption, fluorescence, and photodissociation. Several of the laboratory assignments are experiments that will be conducted directly in the Photonics Research Center. These experiments may include Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy; Fourier transform and dispersive Raman spectroscopy, laser ablation, laser spectroscopy; and kinetics. Computer-based methods of data acquisition and analysis will be used throughout.
