Miniaturization, Modulation, and Chip Scaling of Photonic Technologies

The Missile Defense Agency seeks advancing and incorporating quantum and photonic technologies that can augment current state-of-the-art radar and communication systems into fielded hardware. Photonic technologies coupled with measurable quantum effects could dramatically increase the resilience and effectiveness of the sensors and radios in the Missile Defense System. Selected proposals shall provide a pathway to common building block technologies to direct sample and/or heterodyne structure so...
