Phase I

Contract Number: N68335-09-C-0336
Start Date: 7/16/2009    Completed: 2/16/2010
Phase I year
2009
Phase I Amount
$70,000
Terbium and Europium doped glasses will be investigated for tunable lasing from 450 nm to 490 nm. They will be pumped by Q-switched frequency tripled 355 nm Nd laser pulses. The Tb materials will also be evaluated for 375 nm laser diode pumping.

Benefit:
Compact efficient tunable blue lasers will advance oceanographic LIDARs and a variety of other applications.
