Technical Abstract (Limit 2000 characters, approximately 200 words)

In this program, Freedom Photonics is proposing to develop a low SWaP, high-power fast-tunable semiconductor laser source operating at 852 nm, critically needed for deployment of practical atomic interferometry gravimeters being developed by NASA GSFC. In addition, we will explore possibilities to further reduce the complexity, size, weight and power of the entire laser system through photonic integration of other functions to the laser

Potential NASA Applications (Limit 1500 characters, approximately 150 words)

Atomic interference gravimetry, atomic clocks

Potential Non-NASA Applications (Limit 1500 characters, approximately 150 words)

Atomic clocks, fiber laser pumping
