SRICO INC — Department of Defense SBIR Phase II: MDA18-017
SRICO INC — SBIR Phase II award from Department of Defense.
Phase II SBIR prototype / development signal
- Phase II is where Department of Defense funds deeper R&D after feasibility. Incumbents with Phase II history are serious competitors on adjacent topics.
- Use this award as past-performance context and to map customer organizations for STRATFI/TACFI-style transition planning.
- Obligated amount $1,009,986 is consistent with substantial Phase II-scale effort; compare to related awards from the same agency.

Description
Propose to develop an innovative fiber optic isolator that is compact and magnetless, thereby reducing size weight and power. Locking technology is implemented to ensure that high isolation is maintained over a large range of operating conditions. The isolator material is ultra low loss and is mode matched to standard double clad fibers. Modeling and simulation of the optical properties will be used to optimize the device geometry to maintain both high power handling as well as low loss. Packaging and device testing will culminate in demonstration of the isolator device in a fiber laser test bed. Approved for Public Release | 19-MDA-10270 (18 Nov 19)
