Research abstract
In order to meet the challenging goals of this program, we will leverage several key technological advances made by Pendar during recent SBIR awards. These unique capabilities include a wafer-scale etching method to define 45deg turning mirrors for surface emission and a high yield buried heterostructure process for QCL arrays. An efficient thermal management solution based on forced air and efficient heat spreaders will also be implemented.
