Abstract :
Recent R&D projects have placed SRICO at the forefront of Thin Film Lithium Niobate (TFLNTM) technology to create advanced photonic, electro-optic devices and nonlinear optical devices. This talk will address the method of producing TFLNTM and results of novel devices fabricated using thin film lithium niobate. Key avionics and defense applications include phased array radar, free space optical communications, mobile communications, satellite communications, antenna remoting, wideband electronic warfare receivers, optical time delay modules, and surveillance activities.
