Projects

A new approach to materials discovery aims to expedite the process of deploying new materials for specific mission needs.

Optical atomic clocks are the most accurate in the world, but they are very large, sensitive instruments. We are transforming the complex components of these clocks into a compact, portable platform.

A small, low-cost system that leverages long-length fibers embedded with electronics could provide persistent monitoring of the undersea environment.

We are designing a satellite-based lidar system to categorize aerosols in the atmosphere.

A technology that allows system developers to combine modules produced by trusted foundries and commercial manufacturers may deliver yield enhancements and power and performance benefits to mission-critical systems.

Engineered diamonds show promising capability for use in quantum sensing of magnetic fields.

New materials that are chemically inspired by nature could be tailored at the molecular level to dissipate vibrations in microsystems. Materials that can survive repeated external stresses could enable a next generation of enhanced microsystems.

A novel method for manufacturing interconnects could open the door for 3D-printed microelectronic systems.

A new planet hunter will spend the next two years searching for exoplanets, including those that could support life.

The system can rapidly and discreetly detect threat items concealed under clothes or hidden in bags of people in crowded public spaces.
