PBS Program Name:
DoD 21/22 Defence Science and Technology
Grant Program:
National Intelligence and Security Discovery Research Grants
Grant Activity:
High brightness 2 µm to 20 µm swept wavelength source
Purpose:
This project aims to benefit from Macquarie University's world-leading expertise in mid-infrared fibre laser technology to develop a compact high brightness mid-infrared light source that can rapidly be swept across the entire molecular fingerprint region.
The expected outcome of this project is a unique platform technology that will enable a new generation of field-deployable chemical and biological sensor systems for the identification of virtually any a-priori unknown biological and chemical threat, for example in a battlefield or in a chemical and/or biological terror attack situation.
This project expects to generate new knowledge in the area of mid-infrared photonics and material science as well as in nonlinear optics.
