Research abstract
The goal of this proposed Phase II effort is to design and demonstrate a monolithic architecture for two-dimensional, all-electronic beam steering of a high power, mid-infrared laser. A photonic integrated circuit architecture is described which contains a widely tunable, mid-infrared quantum cascade laser integrated with a phase-adjustable amplifier array and a high efficiency grating outcoupler. This will enable electronic beam steering over a wide range, along with high power output which is desirable for IRCM applications.
