ESA: ESTEC

Full Name: Microphotonics for space applications

Duration: 1/9/2002-1/9/2003 (Finished)

Partners:

• none

Objective:

• Assessment of the potential of microphotonic technologies in spaceborne systems and identification of spacecraft applications where microphotonics can offer a significant improvement over currently used technologies.

INTEC's Role:

• A broad know-how about different photonics applications is present at INTEC (also contacts with specialists world-wide). The design software and processing facilities of INTEC are essential for the design and fabrication of a demonstrator with a potential for space-applications.
