| Abstract: |
Based on our success in developing a series of high power and high energy fiber laser products and our leading proprietary technology development in fiber laser pumped OPO, PolarOnyx proposes, for the first time, a compact high power/energy (>100 kJ and >1kW) fiber laser pumped OPO to meet with the requirement of this solicitation, by incorporating our proprietary technology of pulse/spectral shaping technology in high power amplifier system and compact OPO. A proof of concept experiment will be demonstrated in Phase I time frame. A prototype will be delivered in Phase II.

| Benefits: |
The proposed high energy fs fiber laser can be used in many military applications, such as space, aircraft, and satellite applications of LADAR, sensing systems and communications, laser weapons, and target designation and illumination. PolarOnyx will develop a series of products to meet various requirements for military deployments.
With successful development of the laser, the technology proposed by PolarOnyx will provide a vital tool to solve the existing and potential issues and merge with the huge markets including
Material processing. This includes (1) all types of metal processing such as welding, cutting, annealing, and drilling; (2)semiconductor and microelectronics manufacturing such as lithography, inspection, control, defect analysis and repair, and via drilling; (3) marking of all materials including plastic, metals, and silicon; (4) other materials processing such as rapid prototyping, desk top manufacturing, micromachining, photofinishing, embossed holograms, and grating manufacturing.
Medical equipment and biomedical instrumentation. The high power amplifier/laser can be applied to ophthalmology, refractive surgery, photocoagulation, general surgery, therapeutic, imaging, and cosmetic applications. Biomedical instruments include those involved in cells or proteins, cytometry, and DNA sequencing; laser Raman spectroscopy, spectrofluorimetry, and ablation; and laser based microscopes.
