$4.3M DARPA Grant
A new class of sensors that can detect multiple
biological and chemical threats simultaneously with unprecedented performance may
soon be within reach, thanks to the establishment of a multimillion dollar research
center led by Georgia Institute of Technology engineers. DARPA will fund the two-year,
$4.3 million center as one of its Centers in Integrated Photonics Engineering Research,
which investigate innovative approaches that enable revolutionary advances in science,
devices or systems. For its center, Georgia Tech will work with researchers from
Emory and Yale universities, from MIT and from the University of California, Santa
Cruz. The team also includes industry collaborators Rockwell Collins Inc. of Cedar
Rapids, Iowa; Kotura Inc. of Monterey Park and Santur Corp. of Fremont, both in
California; and NanoRods LLC of Germantown, Md.
