The aim of this project is to introduce upper-level undergraduate               chemistry students at James Madison University to the uses of lasers in         various aspects of chemistry.  Courses in instrumental analysis,                physical chemistry, and biochemistry, and undergraduate research                opportunities will be enhanced through this project.  Included are new          experiments involving Raman spectroscopy, regular, polarized, and phase         sensitive emission spectroscopy, multiple photon effects, laser                 vaporization, and thermal lensing.  These techniques will be                    incorporated through the acquisition of two lasers, Nd:YAG and He/Cd            units, plus a suitable selection of accessories.  Lasers have had a             significant impact on the practice of modern chemistry.  This project           will expose students to many of the important chemical applications of          lasers.
