| Abstract: |
Navy needs UVA laser modules with three wavelengths with >3W fiber coupled power output. Princeton Optronics proposes a frequency doubling approach which they use for high efficiency frequency doubling of VCSEL output. This would work at UVA wavelengths with PPLN and LBO materials as frequency doublers. In phase I, Princeton Optronics wants to demonstrate frequency doubling at 400nm wavelength and in phase II demonstrate doubling at other wavelengths and build the fiber coupled module as Navy requires. |
| Benefits: |
There is a large market for UV lasers for military for bio-warfare agent detection and decontamination as well as in commercial for drying of paints, water purification and print drying. The total market is over $20M. Princeton Optronics has a strong marketing and sales team as well as a good manufacturing operation and would be able to take advantage of the market and commercialize the products developed out of the SBIR. |
