Phase I

Contract Number: W56GU-17-C-0053
Start Date: 6/29/2017    Completed: 1/4/2018
Phase I year
2017
Phase I Amount
$149,995
The objective of this effort is to develop a dual-color MWIR display suitable for use in IR scene projection using a combination of QD technology and commercial LCD displays. Efficient MWIR emitting core/shell PbSe/PbS(or CdSe) QDs will be focused on during Phase I. MWIR QDs will be produced and deposited on a substrate to combine with a grayscale output LCD microdisplay. The light produced by the microdisplay image will be absorbed by the QD screen and converted to a corresponding MWIR image.

Phase II

Contract Number: W56KGU-17-C-0053
Start Date: 9/27/2018    Completed: 9/27/2019
Phase II year
2018
Phase II Amount
$500,000
The objective of this effort is to continue the development of a dual-color MWIR display suitable for use in IR scene projection using a combination of quantum dot (QD) technology and commercial LCD displays. More efficient MWIR emitting core/shell QDs will be developed and fine-tuned during Phase II. The MWIR QDs will be deposited and patterned on a substrate to form 2-color subpixel arrays and then combined with an LCD microdisplay . The light produced by the microdisplay image will be absorbed by the QD screen and converted to a corresponding MWIR image.
