Research abstract
This effort will advance the state of the art in hyperspectral imaging through the use ofĀmetamaterials, whichĀhave aĀnegative refractive index.Ā This technology enables more compact &Ādurable, lighter weight designs for hyperspectral detection, which is crucial for deployment on smaller UAV systems. The team of NanoLab and Boston CollegeĀtogether have world-class capabilities in nanoscale fabrication and modelling of metamaterial systems, and are developing a solution that minimizes the angular sensitivity common inĀother metamaterial surfaces. Further this technologyĀis applicable across the entire visible to IR spectrum, and should create game changing opportunities for hyperspectal sensing.
