  • LIQUID COOLED LASER OPTICAL BENCH FOR THERMAL POINTING STABILITY
    Publication number: 20200161825
    Abstract: A system and method for liquid cooling an optical bench to provide for thermal stability. The liquid cooled bench may optionally be chilled with a cold plate. In some cases, individual components which generate excess heat contain circulating fluid connected to a network of channels within the optical bench to provide for cooling and even distribution of liquid flow and temperature.

  • Wide band antenna having a driven bowtie dipole and parasitic bowtie dipole embedded within armor panel
    Patent number: 10062967
    Abstract: A high powered armor panel having the wideband embedded antenna for operation in severe environmental conditions. The armor panel comprises a driven bowtie dipole electrically coupled to at least one driven resistor, a parasitic bowtie dipole electrically coupled to at least one parasitic resistor, a composite structure which has the driven bowtie dipole and the parasitic bowtie dipole embedded therein, a heat sink supported on a first side of the composite structure for dissipating heat, and an armor layer supported on an opposite second first side of the composite structure. The heat sink supports the at least one driven resistor electrically coupled to the driven bowtie dipole and the at least one parasitic resistor electrically coupled to the parasitic bowtie dipole.
