This project involves development of the Advanced Physics Laboratory course to allow undergraduate students to study select topics from atomic, molecular, and solid state physics and learn the methods of modern experimental techniques. A computer-interfaced optical spectroscopy system (spectrophotometer) is helping to develop three new experiments on atomic physics, molecular physics, and quantum mechanics. The experiments are measuring the Rydberg constant, isotope structure, and fine structure for the atomic transitions in hydrogen, the molecular optical transitions of N2, and the energy gap of silicon, germanium, and gallium arsenide. Students can greatly benefit from training on the computer-interfaced, high-resolution equipment, while learning essential laws of physics.

该项目涉及开发先进的物理实验室课程，以允许本科生研究原子，分子和固态物理学的某些主题，并学习现代实验技术的方法。计算机交织的光谱系统（分光光度计）正在帮助开发有关原子物理学，分子物理学和量子力学的三个新实验。这些实验正在测量氢，N2的分子光学跃迁以及硅，锗和砷化盐的能量间隙的原子跃迁的Rydberg常数，同位素结构和精细结构。在学习物理学基本定律的同时，学生可以通过对计算机交织的高分辨率设备进行培训，从而大大受益。
