Expertise in Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) for Remote Sensing and Scientific Applications

The Goddard Engineering and Technology Directorate (ETD) has the capability to design, layout, analyze, and model PICs at the system and component level. ETD can characterize performance and integrate into higher level systems, especially for remote sensing instruments for scientific applications. Partnerships with industry, academia, and other government agencies are welcomed for fabrication and packaging.
