Research abstract
In the proposed Phase I program, DeMaria ElectroOptics Systems, Inc (DEOS) will explore innovative non-linear techniques based on frequency conversion of long wavelength pump lasers using AgGaSe2 crystals and other potential non-linear crystals that if successful will enable the construction of a high repetition rate, 5 -10 watt, 7.5 micron - 9 micron laser system in Phase II that meets both the performance and deployability requirements of the Navy. The availability of such sources will also enable DEOS to introduce new commercial products to address a number of new industrial/scientific instrumentation applications.
