Laser Chemistry is a graduate-level course that provides an advanced introduction to the principles and applications of lasers in chemistry. The course focuses on the interaction between light and matter, laser spectroscopy, photochemical and photophysical processes, and laser-based methods for probing and controlling molecular and material systems. The course will cover both fundamental concepts and selected advanced topics, including molecular spectroscopy, reaction dynamics, nonlinear optical processes, laser-induced heating, optical trapping, laser-induced crystallization, and laser-based manipulation of soft matter and molecular assemblies. Through lectures, discussions, and examples from recent research, students will learn how laser techniques are applied to investigate chemical structures, molecular dynamics, reaction mechanisms, and materials processes. Course Objectives: By the end of this course, students will be able to: Explain the fundamental principles of lasers and laser–matter interactions. Understand the theoretical basis and practical applications of laser spectroscopy. Describe photochemical and photophysical processes induced by laser irradiation. Discuss how lasers can be used to probe, control, and manipulate molecular and material systems. Critically evaluate recent research examples involving laser chemistry, laser trapping, laser-induced crystallization, and related phenomena. Apply concepts of laser chemistry to their own research fields in chemistry, materials science, photochemistry, and related areas.

This graduate-level course is intended for students who have a basic understanding of physical chemistry, organic chemistry, quantum chemistry, and photochemistry. Prior experience with spectroscopy or laser-based experiments would be beneficial but is not required. Fundamental concepts necessary for understanding laser chemistry will be reviewed when appropriate, considering that students may have different research backgrounds.
