Research abstract
In this SBIR program, Structured Materials Industries, Inc. www.structuredmaterials.com (SMI) is developing infrared-transparent, electromagnetic shield coatings which can be applied to electro-optic sensor windows and domes. The coatings will be deposited by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), which can deposit high quality films with very low stress and excellent uniformity on 3-dimensional substrates. Phase I demonstrated technical feasibility of developing coating materials with high electrical conductivity and good infrared transparency in the 3 micron to 5 micron wavelength range. Phase II will further optimize the coating properties, and demonstrate coating performance in the operational environment.
