 What is CLARITY ?

Project full title:

Compact uLtrA-efficient mid-infRared photonIc sysTems based on low noise quantum cascade laser sources,  wide band frequencY converters and near-infrared photodetectors

CLARITY is a 3-years research project funded under the seventh framework programme (FP7) in the research area: ICT-2011.3.5 Core and disruptive photonic technologies. The project envisions the development and demonstration of a set of technologies which will radically change the current scenery of mid Infrared photonic systems in terms of performance, size and cost. The technology vehicles are ultra-low noise quantum cascade laser sources and ultra-wideband frequency converters based on silicon nano-waveguides and microstructured soft-glass fibers.
