Microwave Photonics

Abstract

During this program critical infrastructure, technical expertise, and enabling processes necessary to accelerate the development of sensors, alternative power sources and other specific subtopics as well as initiated device development projects of specific interest to DoD were developed. A state-of-the-art microsystems prototype and pilot fabrication facility was established to enable rapid commercialization of new products. With targeted research programs guided by the wealth of expertise of Infotonics' business and scientific staff, enabling technologies and processes were developed to support and accelerate innovative technologies and devices of special interest to the DoD's fume warrior initiative. A flexible, robust multi-user hybrid processing platform for MEMS devices (i.e., waveguides and ROAD-Ms) using Silicon- on-Insulator Wafer was developed to enable the next generation of optoelectronic devices such as optical communication networks, advanced imaging and information sensors and systems, microfluidic systems, assembly and packaging technologies and biochemical sensors.
