Dr. Mark Horn has successfully led a team of investigators and attracted a Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative program to Penn State and ESM. The proposal is entitled “Uncooled IR Detectors: Growth, Characterization, and Modeling of Monolithic Silicon Microbolometer Materials for Uncooled Infrared Detectors” and is supported by the Army Research Office. The project will attract approximately $5,000,000 over the next five years.
