Inhaltsangabe

Soon after she became involved in the didactics of physics, the author of this book realized that the transfer of new discoveries in physics into schools and to undergraduate programs is almost non-existent. Such an introduction is difficult as students' k

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Jin-Tae Kim is a Professor of the Department of Photonic Engineering at Chosun University, Gwangju, Korea. He has served as the chair of the division of atomic and molecular physics in the Korean Physical Society since 2014. He received BS and MS degrees in Physics from Korea University, Seoul, Korea, in 1984 and 1986, and a PhD degree from the University of Iowa, Iowa City, USA in 1995. His dissertation work involved all-optical multiple resonance spectroscopy of the potassium diatomic molecule using a high resolution CW ring dye and Ti:Sapphire lasers. In 1995, he joined the Physics Department, University of Connecticut, Storrs, where he performed laser molecular supersonic beam experiments for hydrogen molecules. In 1997, he joined the laboratory for Quantum Optics, Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute, where he was engaged in the research and development of dye lasers and laser atomic spectroscopy by using a time of mass spectrometer. His primary research interest is laser ultracold atomic and molecular spectroscopy. Other research interests include laser applications such as display and information storage using digital holography, pattern recognition using optical correlation methods, surface profile measurements using the interferometer, and ultra-sensitive detection of gas.

Bongsoo Kim is Professor of Chemistry at KAIST in Korea. He has a BS and a MS degree in Chemistry from Seoul National University and a PhD in Physical Chemistry from U. C. Berkeley. He spent two years at Kyungbook National University as a professor. Then he moved to KAIST in 1996, serving there at present. His primary interest has been laser spectroscopy in molecular beams. Recently he expanded his interest into nanoscience and synthesized gold nanowires and nanoplates, utilizing them for surface enhanced Raman scattering. In 2015 he serves as Chairman of the Physical Chemistry Section of the Korean Chemical Society for a year. Major awards include the Grand Research Prize in 2011 from the Korean Chemical Society.

William C Stwalley is Board of Trustees Distinguished Professor of Physics at the University of Connecticut at Storrs as well as Affiliate Professor of Chemistry and member of the Institute of Materials Science. He has a BS degree in Chemistry from Caltech and a PhD in Physical Chemistry from Harvard. He next spent 25 years at the University of Iowa, where he rose through the ranks to the George Glockler Professor of Physics and Chemistry. In 1993, he became Department Head of the Physics Department at UConn, serving in that capacity until 2011. His primary interest has been atomic and molecular interactions, which he has studied theoretically and experimentally throughout his career, emphasizing the determination of potential energy curves out to long range and the use of laser spectroscopy. In addition to fellowship in the American Association for Advancement of Science, the American Physical Society and the Optical Society of America, major awards received include the Meggers Award for Spectroscopy of the Optical Society of America and the Connecticut Medal of Science.
