Abstract
This progress report covers work done under JSEP Contract N00014-75-C-0632 for approximately one year, April 1979-April 1980. Since the report is being prepared in June 1980, there may be some imprecision in the coverage period. Most projects are concerned with the exploration of some new concepts, using special materials and/or electronic interactions in some unique way, with some well defined objectives; for example, possible new kinds of spectroscopy using lasers to make measurements not easily done, if at all, presently, the investigation of superconducting electronic components using high Tc materials, exploration of various techniques and materials for more sophisticated and/or higher speed signal processing. In most cases, there is uncertainty as to whether the material properties, material combinations required and/or the physical performance envisaged can be achieved. Broadly then, one can categorize most of these projects as aimed at useful and unique electronic applications by means which are still uncertain, and which will require a great deal of basic investigation of materials, processing, and technological innovation. This has been typical of the work under JSEP in this laboratory for many years where some new possibly useful concept has been conceived and then the subsequent program devoted to research to see whether this concept could actually be reduced to practice and shown to be actually a possible one given the limitation of materials, etc. (Author)
