摘要：
Many advances have been made recently in both solid-state and semiconductor based mid-wave infrared (MWIR) and long-wave infrared (LWIR) laser technologies, and there is an ever growing demand for these laser sources for Naval, DOD and homeland security applications. We will present various current and future programs and efforts at Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD) on the development of high-power, broadly tunable MWIR/LWIR lasers for sensing applications.
