Peer reviewedChristie, P. F.; And Others – Physics Education, 1974
Described are the elementary principles of Fourier transform spectroscopy and typical experimental results obtained with a modified Michelson interferometer. (RH)
Descriptors: Instruction, Laboratory Techniques, Physics, Research
Peer reviewedStephens, N. W. F.; Rogers, G. L. – Physics Education, 1974
Described is a device that can be set up on a bench with inexpensive apparatus. The device performs in non-coherent white light according to the laws of geometrical optics. (RH)

Peer reviewedEaton, Bruce G., Ed. – American Journal of Physics, 1976
Articles describing construction of an inexpensive spectrograph, improving focusing of Polaroid cameras, use of space satellites for instruction, and construction of an optics demonstration platform. (RH)
Descriptors: Construction (Process), Demonstrations (Educational), Laboratory Equipment, Optics
Peer reviewedKrudy, George A.; Macomber, Roger S. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1979
Four examples are given of spectra of organophosphorus compounds which show students how the effects of phosphorus are delt with in nmr spectroscopy. (BB)
Descriptors: Chemistry, Higher Education, Instructional Materials, Laboratory Procedures
Peer reviewedHall, J. L. – Science, 1978
Traces the development of stabilized lasers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology passive-stabilization experiments of the early 1960s up through the current epoch of highly stabilized helium-neon and carbon dioxide and continuous wave dye lasers. (Author/HM)
Descriptors: Lasers, Measurement, Optics, Physics
Peer reviewedPatel, C. K. N. – Science, 1978
Discusses the use of laser spectroscopy in determining the presence of specific gaseous constituents. Three of currently used modes for laser detection of pollution are reviewed; (1) long-path measurements; (2) laser raman (differential absorption) measurements; and (3) optoacoustic detection. (HM)
Descriptors: Lasers, Measurement, Optics, Physics
Peer reviewedRentzepis, P. M. – Science, 1978
Describes a currently used picosecond spectroscopy system capable of reliably recording picosecond events. Two areas of picosecond research are discussed: one concerns the interaction of electrons in fluids; the second, the primary events in vision. (Author/HM)
Descriptors: Biological Sciences, Chemistry, Lasers, Optics
Peer reviewedO'Haver, T. C. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1978
Provides a chronicle of the use of luminescence spectrometry as an analytic device. Describes present-day applications of the technique. (CP)
Descriptors: Chemistry, Chronicles, Optics, Science Education

Descriptors: Chemical Analysis, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Research Methodology
Peer reviewedAmend, John R. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1971
Descriptors: Atomic Structure, Chemistry, College Science, Educational Media
Peer reviewedHeilbronner, Edgar – Journal of Chemical Education, 1979
Discusses the determination of the position of the absorption maximum in wide bands as well as the confidence limits for such calculations. A simple method, suited for pocket calculators, for the numerical evaluation of these calculations is presented. (BB)
Descriptors: Chemistry, College Science, Computation, Higher Education
Peer reviewedBillmeyer, Fred W., Jr. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1974
Describes an experiment designed to familiarize students with the operation of a precision spectrophotometer, the effects of changes in operating variables, and the characteristics of such components as sources and detectors. (SLH)
Descriptors: Chemical Analysis, Chemistry, College Science, Instructional Materials
Peer reviewedSchawlow, Arthur L. – Science, 1978
Surveys new laser techniques and a variety of spectroscopic experiments that can be used to detect, measure and study very small numbers of atoms on molecules. The range of applicability of these techniques is also included. (HM)
Descriptors: Atomic Structure, Lasers, Optics, Physics
