AF STFP Mid- and Long-Wavelength Infrared Single Band Detectors for Infrared Imaging

Due: May 1, 2025

$100,000

Description

Our research interests include the development of Infrared (IR) Materials, Detectors, and Focal Plane Arrays (FPAs) utilizing group III-V materials, mainly Sb-based type II strained layer superlattices (SLSs), and novel detector architectures such as unipolar barrier detectors. Through design, material growth, and device fabrication, we are developing FPAs to cover either the mid wave infrared (MWIR) spectral band or the long wave infrared (LWIR) spectral band for passive imaging. Although there has been significant progress rece...

Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
