Extractions: Dr. David J. McGee- faculty advisor My research focuses on photonics, with emphasis on lasers, holography, and photorefractive nonlinear optics. Photonics is the study of light and its interaction with matter. The applications of photonics such as fiber optic networks and CDs are transforming the technological landscape in ways similar to the electronic revolution of the past fifty years. At Drew, I run the photonics laboratory and provide many opportunities for students to work in the lab, including multidisciplinary projects with chemistry and computer science. Student projects span the range from Independent Study courses, Honors theses, paid summer internships with the Drew Summer Science Institute, and paid summer research assistantships through external grants. Recent projects involved the fabrication of organic films for 3-D holography and the application of these films in holographic data storage devices. There is also continuing development of innovative instructional laboratory experiments in nonlinear optics, laser spectroscopy, and image processing as part of the junior-senior Advanced Lab course for physics majors/minors. I encourage students to experience work in the photonics lab every chance they get- it provides exposure to the technologies not covered in courses, but which employers and graduate schools are seeking.

Extractions: Take two flashlights at night and cross them. You know that the light beams pass right through each other, right? As we all know, this is because Maxwell's equations (the equations of light) are linear. Light cannot interact with light usually. But it can under the right circumstances. Now take a single laser and split it into two coherent beams of photons. If these laser beams cross inside a type of a nonlindar crystal, they mutually influence each others propagation. In some cases, one beam will donate its photons to the other beam. This results in nonreciprocal energy transfer between the beams, and constitutes one of the few instances of optical amplification without stimulated emission. The control of light by light is the optical analog of the control of electgrons by electrons in transistors. One of the great challenges facing quantum optics today is the search for the appropriate medium in which photons can control photons. The discovery of such a medium would open to way for photonic computers. The electronic revolution of the 1960's is now giving way to the photonics revolution. Almost all high-data-rate systems in use today use photons to carry information. Even microprocessors in your personal computers are on the verge of using photonics to bus information and to provide masssively parallel interconnections. Hybrid electronic/photonic microprocessors are only about 5 years away from the marketplace.

Final Report to the National Science Foundation, Instrumentation for Laboratory Improvement Program Special Announcement: You will encounter challenging puzzles and explore new and exciting physical phenomena. You will be provided with sufficient tools, guidance and other re-sources, but what you learn depends on your inquisitiveness and creativity. This laboratory course is designed to serve two purposes: 1) To introduce and explore a va-riety of physical principles using the fascinating and diverse behavior of light. 2) To learn some of the principles behind the pervasive and expanding area of optical and laser tech-nology. This course is suitable for students of science, life sciences, and engineering, or any student who is curi-ous about light. The prerequisites are the level of quantitative sophomore physics 142 or 212 Electricity and Magnetism, or an equivalent background which includes basic electricity, magnetism and optics. A quantitative laboratory course in the sciences or in engineering is also a prereq-uisite. Lasers and modern optics are perhaps the fastest growing areas of scientific research and technological development. Most professionals in physics, astronomy, other sciences, and most engineering disciplines will employ lasers or modern optical technology at some point in their careers. For example, lasers are used in astronomy, biology, chemistry, dentistry, entertainment, forestry, geology, holography, inspection, laproscopy, medicine, nuclear physics, ophthalmology, physics, recycling, surgery, telecommunications, urology, video, welding, xerography, zoology-the list goes on and on.
