- This is a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II contract awarded by NASA to Fibertek, Inc., a small business manufacturer specializing in advanced photonics and engineering services. The $1,649,351 contract focuses on developing prototype laser components for airborne water vapor and ozone differential absorption lidar (DIAL) systems. Specifically, Fibertek will deliver a water vapor DIAL transmitter with a tunable output at 936 nm and a wavelength converter for ozone DIAL...
Fibertek, Inc., a small business, was awarded a $124,950 firm-fixed-price contract from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to develop a single-frequency, erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Er:YAG) laser transmitter to advance the technology for a space-based wind lidar system. The transmitter will be compact, efficient, and conductively cooled, operating at a higher repetition rate than typical 2-micron lidar systems to leverage the long storage time of Er:YAG. This Phase I Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) award aims to demonstrate a high-power (>12.5 W) oscillator optimized for 500 Hz operation at a Technology Readiness Level 4. In a follow-on Phase II, Fibertek will develop a hardened brassboard version suitable for airborne systems and investigate coatings to improve damage thresholds.
