This federal contract award, valued at $124,979.00, was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Torch Technologies Inc., a small business contractor, in response to the NASA Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program 2015 Phase I Solicitation S3.08: Slow and Fast Light. The primary objective of this research contract is to develop a polarization-coupled fast-light optical gyroscope (FLOG) technology that can enhance the sensitivity of inertial navigation systems, leading to greater spacecraft autonomy. The proposed innovation involves a new method of fast light cavity enhancement using mode coupling between orthogonally polarized modes in a single cavity, which aims to address the challenges associated with stabilizing coupled cavities. The results of this effort are expected to contribute to the development of advanced gyroscopy technologies suitable for flexible path and deep space exploration, thereby advancing current navigation systems.
