Research abstract
This Phase I proposal is to design and demonstrate a lower cost replacement Laser Module Assembly (LMA) for the Lightweight Wide Aperture Array (LWWAA) acoustic sensor system. We believe that our Virtual Ring laser Oscillator can offer a high-power, ultra stable, low phase noise and low-RIN 1550nm fiber laser that can meet and even surpass the currently deployed LMA based on the 1.3 micron Non-Planar Ring Oscillator (NPRO) at a lower cost, weight, power consumption and with better reliability.
