Research abstract
This project is to build and test several passive optical sensors needed for AFRL Fly-by-Light systems based on carbon nanotube technology that has been developed in the Phase I efforts. The sensors will be developed to meet the important AFRL Fly-by-Light requirements of insensitivity to light amplitude, high degree of EMI/RFI immunity, exceptional small size, measurement sensitivity, response time and compatibility with WDM multimode and single mode fiber optic networks. A sensor test facility including VCSEL light source, fiber optic network and a receiver module will be designed and fabricated. Sensors to measure magnetic field, voltage, current and temperature will be built and tested. Performance tests of these sensors with respect to the key requirements will be conducted in a high EMI/RFI field environment.
