Sensing and Electromagnetics
Abstract
This Project conducts basic research on semiconductor materials, layered structures, and novel devices for optical sources, detectors, integrated optoelectronic circuits, and energy generation and storage devices. Efforts include multiscale modeling, material and structure growth and characterization, and novel device design and fabrication. The research has application to Soldier power, sensors, lower power communications, and quantum networks; unattended sensor networks, including distributed sensor fusion; ground vehicle sensors and auxiliary power systems; alternative position, navigation, and timing (PNT) systems for Global Positioning System (GPS)-denied environments; and sensors and power for small unattended ground and air vehicles. This work addresses Army Modernization Priorities in Soldier Lethality, Next Generation Combat Vehicle, Long-Range Precision Fires, and Assured Position, Navigation, and Timing. FY 2020 realignments are due to financial restructuring in support of Army Modernization Priorities The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy.
