Electron Capture By Multiply Charged Ions From Molecular Targets, Justin Harris

Masters Theses

State-selective differential cross sections for single-electron capture processes in collisions of Ne^q+ (q=2, 3, 5) ions with H₂O and CO₂ have been studied experimentally at laboratory collisions energies between 45 and 250 eV, and at scattering angles between 0^o and 7:20^o by means of translational energy-gain spectroscopy technique. The translational energy spectra show that only a few final states are populated depending on the projectile's charge state, laboratory scattering angle, and the collision energy. In addition, these measurements show that the dominant reaction channels are due to non-dissociative electron capture into excited states of …

Forcing Mutual Coherence In Diode Laser Stacks, Jonathan R. Wurtz

Honors Theses and Capstones

This paper will discuss both theoretical and experimental attempts to improve the spatial beam quality of diode laser stacks using an external optical system. An overview and derivation of the mathematics of both the optical system and diode lasers will be discussed. The experimental setup will be presented, as well as the fundamental theoretical and experimental results that suggest the external optical system used for this thesis fails to improve the beam quality of a diode laser stack.
