This award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation Program will allow the Chemistry Department at American University to purchase a Nd:YAG pumped dye laser. Junior faculty member Charles D. Pibel will be the primary user of this instrument, which will allow him to perform cavity ringdown laser absorption spectroscopy (CRLAS) studies of a triplet state molecule, and to probe molecular alignment and orientation. The laser will also be used in an undergraduate physical chemistry laboratory as a teaching tool to introduce laser fundamentals and spectroscopy. Lasers are light sources that have many uses in chemistry research. They can be used in experiments to learn about the structure of molecules and unstable free radicals, and to examine detailed molecular properties that can have important ramifications for materials science and biology. Also serving as educational tools, lasers can perform effectively as instruments in undergraduate teaching laboratories.

化学研究工具计划的奖项将允许美国大学的化学系购买ND：YAG泵送染料激光。初级教职员工Charles D. Pibel将是该仪器的主要用户，这将使他能够对三胞胎状态分子进行空腔响起激光吸收光谱（CRLAS）研究，并探测分子对齐和方向。激光也将用于本科生化学实验室中，用作引入激光基本原理和光谱法的教学工具。激光是在化学研究中有多种用途的光源。 它们可以用于实验中，以了解分子和不稳定的自由基的结构，并检查可以对材料科学和生物学产生重要影响的详细分子特性。 同样是作为教育工具，激光器可以有效地作为本科教学实验室的工具。
