| Abstract: |
In Phase I, we will assess the technical issues and risks associated with developing a multi-ferroic phase shifter. We will develop target specifications. We will then fabricate multi-ferroic devices. We test these devices to determine the feasibility to meet the target specifications. We will then develop practical packaging for these devices. We will gather enough information to estimate the technical risk in Phase II. We will then have all of the building blocks to develop a prototype in Phase II. |
| Benefits: |
The proposed technology is expected to result in a high level of interest in these circuits for current and future generation phased-array radar systems. |
