DURIP: Building a 100 kHz Yb-based Sum Frequency Generation Spectrometer through the Training of Next Generation Scientists and Engineers
Abstract
We proposed to build a multi-use high repetition rate spectrometer that will include surface specific techniques such as sum frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy, sum frequency scattering (SFS) spectroscopy, and time-resolved SFG spectroscopy, as well as bulk measurement techniques, such as 2D electronic spectroscopy. This Ytterbium (Yb) based laser system provides increased signal to noise and faster acquisition times that can open the field and use of nonlinear optical spectroscopy to more complex systems. Through the training of students and postdoctoral fellows we can build a multi-use spectrometer to apply to a broad range of science importantfor the Department of Defense mission, including but not limited to unraveling chemical reactions on interfaces and to characterizematerials for solar conversion. Moreover, the DURIP instrumentation will provide opportunities to mentor and educate the next generation of scientists and engineers through cutting edge research.
