Research abstract
This SBIR program will lead to the development of key photonic components for use in high performance quantum sensors and clocks. AdvR proposes to develop ultra high-performance phase and amplitude modulators for use at visible and ultra-violet wavelengths. The proposed innovation utilizes high performance, damage resistant optical waveguides with high speed traveling wave electrodes to provide integrated functionality. These components are expected to be used in a variety of NASA and non-NASA applications including cold atom and trapped ion systems for precision sensing, timing, and computing.
