Low Noise & Low-SWaP High-Repetition Rate Mode-Locked Lasers for High-Speed Photonics
Summary
The Department of the Air Force is seeking proposals to develop compact low‑SWaP optically or electrically pumped mode‑locked lasers operating at 6–12 GHz repetition rates for near‑infrared to short‑wave infrared applications. This effort targets high‑speed photonic integration and addresses a current gap in commercially available low‑noise, high‑repetition‑rate laser sources.
