About this award

This federal contract award, NNX15CG34P, was issued by the Shared Services Center of a civilian federal agency to Princeton Lightwave Inc., a for-profit manufacturing organization. The contract is valued at $124,989.00 and is designated as a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I action.

The objective of this contract is to develop a robust, fiber-coupled, narrow linewidth, tunable, highly reliable, and compact seed laser that can be used in the realization of higher performance high energy laser sources designed for methane detection using light detection and ranging (LIDAR) techniques. This seed laser is a critical component for enabling the growth of precise measurements of methane concentration and distribution in the Earth's atmosphere.

Description

Growing interest in precise measurements of methane concentration and distribution in the earth's atmosphere is stimulating efforts to develop lidar systems in the spectral region of 1.65 ?m utilizing path differential absorption techniques. The key element of such systems is a high energy optical source with good beam properties operating in the vicinity of a methane absorption line. A number of very promising architectures for designing high energy lasers at 1651 NM have been described recently, but the performance of the lasers developed in these earlier efforts has been limited by the lack of a sufficiently high-power tunable seed laser. For this sbir phase i program, we propose to develop a robust seed laser that is fiber-coupled, narrow linewidth, tunable, highly reliable, compact, and which ultimately will allow the realization of much higher performance high energy laser sources designed for methane detection.
