The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) awarded a $200,000 Cooperative Agreement under the Science, Technology, Business and/or Education Outreach program (CFDA 11.620) to Emode Photonix LLC. The purpose of this Phase I award is to develop a new class of photodetectors designed for room temperature operation and tailored dual-comb spectroscopy (DCS) applications. These detectors will seamlessly integrate with chip-scale optical frequency comb sources, enabling mass production and commercial viability. The expected outcome is the development of a chip-scale integrated sensor based on DCS in the molecular fingerprint spectral region, which could enable portable and wearable devices for industrial gas and chemical detection. No sub-recipients are involved in this phase of the program. The award period is from May 15, 2024 to December 15, 2024.
