Research abstract

This SBIR Project will enable development of large, submillimeter wavelength, graphite fiber reinforced composite reflectors for use in atmospheric remote sensing that are otherwise beyond reach because of current weight, size, and cost constraints. Composite Optics, Incorporated (COI), intends to fully exploit the properties of graphite fiber composites, apply our proptietary plating technology, and test the most advanced bulk graphite precision mold techniques. The reflector design will achieve adequate dimensional stability by featuring tiled facesheets and segmented, cellularized core.
