ME 434/534 Sensors and Instrumentation

Credits: (3-0) 3

Introduction to analytical measurement and instrumentation techniques using optics, spectroscopy and photonics. Emphasizes the underlying physics of interaction of light with materials. Practical implementations will be with applications to combustion diagnostics, energy applications, Plasma medicine, biomedical instrumentation, remote sensing, real-time instrumentation, structural testing. Instrumentations and techniques based on interaction of light with materials such as laser machining, pulsed laser deposition, lithography will also be introduced.

Notes: Students enrolled in ME 534 will be held to a higher standard than those enrolled in ME 434.
