Cursusdoelen
  • The student understands the spectroscopy from small molecules towards large (bio) molecular systems
  • The student is introduced to basic and state-of-the-art spectroscopic techniques.
  • The student is familiarized with the literature of modern molecular physics and physical chemistry experiments
  • The student is trained to understand recent literature in the field of light-matter interaction , molecular beam experiments and novel free-electron laser experiments.
Inhoud
The course summarizes the spectroscopy of diatomic and polyatomic molecules (Hund’s cases, rotational, vibrational and electronic energy levels and transitions, transition probabilities, etc.). Then, basic and pioneering detection techniques are introduced, including the understanding of modern light sources (lasers and free-electron lasers) for spectroscopy. The obtained knowledge will be applied to real examples of modern science in the field of spectroscopy and dynamics of molecular systems ranging from small to large (bio)molecular systems.
During the course, the student will be introduced to recent literature and challenged to discuss the state-of-the-art experiments and experimental techniques in the field of molecular physics such as trace gas detection, velocity map imaging, ultra-cold atoms and molecules, frequency-comb spectroscopy and experiments with free-electron lasers.
