Small Business Innovation Research/Small Business Tech Transfer
Compact, Airborne Multispecies Sensor, Phase I
Project Introduction
The Small Business Innovative Research Phase I proposal seeks to develop a compact mid-infrared laser spectrometer to benefit Earth science research activities. To capitalize on emerging aerial platforms, a miniaturized and ruggedized mid-infrared laser spectrometer using novel, fiber-coupled, solid state lasers will be designed to improve performance over traditional tunable diode laser systems requiring cryogenic cooling. It will measure priority gases specifically listed in the subtopic.
