Research abstract
The objective of this proposal to develop and demonstrate a universal optical test bed specifically for the uncooled infrared technology for use in aviation and missile platforms, missile systems, and other military and commercial uncooled applications.This proposal will explore various affordable infrared (IR) materials and their use and suitability for reflective, refractive, and hybrid lens designs.This effort will produce a state-of-the-art standardized optical design for uncooled focal planes.
