This is a SBIR Phase I contract awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Michigan Aerospace Corporation (MAC), a small business. The contract is valued at $114,654.00 and involves the design, development, and testing of an agile, frequency-tunable Fabry-Perot interferometer (etalon) to be used as an optical filter in a differential absorption lidar (DIAL) system. MAC's expertise in designing and building rugged etalons for NASA and other customers will be leveraged in this effort. The Phase I work will focus on the etalon design and a faster tuning method, with Phase II involving the construction and testing of the etalon. This contract is part of the SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) program, which is a set-aside for small businesses.
