Grant: Research Tools and Instruments - Category 1 (<$150,000)
University of Ottawa
$228,617.00
Pulsed laser system
FY 2007-08
Summary
This proposal seeks to augment our experimental facilities with equipment essential to the advancement of our research program. The equipment requested consists of an ultra fast broadly tunable pulsed laser system covering an important wavelength range in the near infra-red. The research program supported by this equipment is in the area of plasmonics and is comprised of experimentally-intensive projects oriented toward the research and demonstration of various active devices. The devices under investigation are amplifiers and tunable lasers operating with long-range surface plasmon waves, and the active medium consists of a solution of dye molecules in solvent. The pulsed laser will be used as an optical pump for driving the devices under investigation and to conduct absorption and emission spectroscopy with dye solutions and other fluorescent matter.
