A diagnostic is proposed for obtaining instantaneous three-dimensional volumetric distributions of density in a flow field at velocities ranging from subsonic to supersonic. Two variants of laser-based Rayleigh scattering will be investigated, each of wh...

Commercially-derived telescope systems, consisting mostly of commercially available components assembled to optimally meet space surveillance goals, stand ready to temporarily replace, supplement and/or augment existing optical surveillance systems. In t...

We propose to develop a 3D tomographic background-orientated Schlieren measurement technique, including hardware setup and post-processing software to produce 3D visualization of compressible flow features in subsonic, transonic, and supersonic wind tunn...

ExoAnalytic Solutions, teamed with Texas A&M University, will develop Highly-mobile Autonomous Rapidly Relocatable Integrated Electro-optical Resources (HARRIER) with the goal being to design and demonstrate tracking of resident space objects (RSOs) in n...

The Air Force has identified a need for the creation of a common streaming model for 3D data that is agnostic to the display technology. To address this need, Third Dimension Technologies (TDT) and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) propose to form a c...

This proposal describes the development of a process to synthesize low defect Ge1-xSnx and SiyGe1-x-ySnx layers on silicon and silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrates through low thermal budget excimer laser and rapid thermal annealing/crystallization for ...

Advanced infrared imaging techniques are of great interest but associated high costs of III-V and II-VI SWIR and MWIR materials prohibit their widespread deployment and integration with other optoelectronic devices. Freedom Photonics and its team partner...

Tensile-strained germanium tin structures will be developed for infrared emitters and detectors that are compatible with silicon fabrication processes.Optical detectors in the wavelength range of 2-5 microns will be developed by using GeSn on silicon ...

allowing the sensitive RF front-end to be located away from the now more compact phased array antenna. We are proposing a rugged photonic integrated spatial division multiplexing RF link for phased array system with low cost, size, weight and power cons...

Molecular beam epitaxy has become essential technique to produce high quality materials and complicated structures. Competing with other growth techniques, such as MOCVD, it has demonstrated higher materials quality and better film uniformity. These adva...
