Summary[edit]

Description

Researchers at UC Davis are working with Lockheed Martin to develop a radically new kind of telescope that will be much lighter and smaller, both of which are important considerations especially for instruments to be launched into space. Lockheed Martin’s SPIDER (Segmented Planar Imaging Detector for Electro-optical Reconnaissance) concept trades bulky lenses and telescopes for a thin layer of hundreds or thousands of tiny lenses that feed photonic integrated circuits on silicon chips. These photonic circuits, developed by Professor Ben Yoo and his team at UC Davis’ Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, combine the light from pairs of lenses to construct a digital image from the interference fringes caused by overlapping waves.
