Welcome to the world of PULS!
Led by Dr. Lingze Duan, Assistant
Professor of Physics, the PULS at UAHuntsville consists of a group of
people who are fascinated by the intriguing nature of light. Our program
enjoys the state-of-the-art optics research facilities at UAHuntsville
and proximity to NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, Army's Redstone
Arsenal, Cummings Research Park, and other high-tech
institutions/companies in the greater Huntsville area. Members of PULS
come from different cultural backgrounds but share the same passion
toward science.Together, we seek deeper understanding and greater
control of light. We also position ourselves as part of the community
and strive to service the northern Alabama region through various
channels.
