SAIC to create GRIN lenses for small, lightweight applications

摘要

Arlington, Va.-Optical researchers at Science Applications International Corp. (SAIC) in McLean, Va., are attempting to create manufacturable gradient index (GRIN) optical lenses for size- and weight-constrained military electro-optics applications. SAIC is doing the research work under terms of a $9.5 million contract from the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in Arlington, Va., for the Manufacturable Gradient Index Optics (M-GRIN) program.
