Research abstract
Compact and highly efficient high-energy green laser sources are in great demand for airborne detection of mine and mine-like objects in the surfzone and very shallow water regions. NP Photonics proposes to develop a diode-pumped high-efficiency direct-to-green laser source based on our proprietary highly doped glass and fiber laser technology. In the Phase I program, we will demonstrate the feasibility of developing a diode-pumped direct-to-green laser at 540 nm with highly doped optical fibers. A compact and highly efficient green laser source meeting or exceeding the requirements of the Navy’s applications will be developed and delivered in Phase II.
