"New scientific discoveries are often catalyzed by new instrumentation"

 

We made this conclusion the central vision of our MURI project, with the goal to develop a measurement platform for subsurface spectroscopy and three-dimensional oject reconstruction. The different investigators bring together complimentary expertise for the needed research areas:

  • local interactions in the microwave regime
  • local interactions in the infrared regime
  • interactions at optical frequencies
  • theory to reconstruct the measured object from recorded signals

The project is subdivided into four tasks as outlined in the table below with an initial period of independent development and refinement of techniques in the laboratories of the participating investigators.
