Students Present at the 2021 Second Annual Physics Summer Research Symposium

Isabel Linhares (’22), Ruben Vargas (’22), and Sam Yurak (’22) presented their research at the physics research symposium on August 5, 2021. Because the annual college-wide poster session is on hiatus, we created this opportunity to share what students have been working on this summer and for us to gather as a department to celebrate. Isabel Linhares’s poster was titled, “Characterizing the Two-Photon Absorption Spectra of Long-Wavelength Dyes Used in Fluorescence-Guided Surgery.” Ruben Vargas’s poster was titled, “Creating Negative GDD through Angular Dispersion: Simple Prism Compressor Model.” Sam Yurak’s poster was titled, “Detecting Two-Photon Fluorescence in a Temporal Focusing Microscope.”
