Research in the Physical Sciences with Application to the Free Electron Laser

Abstract

The goals of this research are to perform research in the physical sciences (chemistry, electrical engineering, materials science, physics) with direct application to Free Electron Laser technology. Recent progress includes: (1) infrared modulation spectroscopy of III-V quantum wells and superlattices; (2) subpicosecond spectroscopy of conducting polymers, metals and amorphous multilayers; (3) new tunable infrared lasers based on defects in alkali halides; (4) laser induced photolysis of small hydrocarbons, organometallics nitrosyls and formaldehyde; (5) modeling of eigenstates in semiconductor quantum wells; and (6) theory of disordered solids.
