description

  • Many dramatic developments in science and technology have resulted from applications of the laser both to the fields of telecommunications, materials processing, and remote sensing and as a diagnostic tool in biology, chemistry, and physics. A number of Applied Physics faculty members have made major contributions to these laser-related areas.
