Pulsed Laser Component Technologies
Abstract
This effort develops and miniaturizes key Directed Energy technology components to enable a Laser Induced Plasma Channel (LIPC) capability. The LIPC effect uses a short pulse laser to generate a conductive path in the air in which high powered microwaves (HPM) and/or high voltage bursts are channeled to defeat different targets at stand-off. Related work continues in 0602624A/Project H19 in FY12 under title DE Standoff Enabler.
