Qualification of Inter-Satellite Link Laser Communication Terminals on CubeSats - CubeISL

open access: yes, 2023
Free Space Optical (FSO) communications on the rise to replace classic Radio-Frequency (RF) systems in many sectors of satellite communication. DLR has a long heritage in developing Laser Communication Terminals (LCT’s) for LEO satellites. Major requirement for the design of the terminals is the optical characterization.

Performance Assessment of a Vibration Isolator for Inter-Satellite Laser Communications.

open access: yesJournal of the Japan Society for Aeronautical and Space Sciences, 1999
Inter-satellite communication instruments require a very-high pointing stability and accuracy, for example, on the order of one micro-radian. This is reachable by means of controlling the employed FPM (Fine Pointing Mechanism) in a wide frequency range.

Band Alignment of Grafted Si/Ge0.89Sn0.11 Heterojunction Determined by X‐Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigate the band alignment of a monocrystalline grafted p‐type Si/Ge0.89Sn0.11 heterostructure using X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The bandgap of the Ge0.89Sn0.11 epilayer of 0.50 eV was first determined and cross‐verified using photoluminescence spectroscopy, infrared transmission, and theoretical calculation.

Wood‐Derived Nanocellulose‐Biocarbon Fresnel‐Zone Plate Lenses for Sub‐THz Frequency Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Wood‐derived nanocellulose and lignin‐based biocarbon were combined to fabricate fully bio‐based Fresnel zone plate (FZP) lenses for sub‐terahertz frequencies. These sustainable FZP lenses exhibit low dielectric loss and high directivity, achieving performance comparable to that of metallic references, and remain functional under environmental stress ...

Aerosol Jet Printing of Benzocyclobutene as a Thermally Stable, Low‐Loss Dielectric for Multilayer Microwave Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Multilayer aerosol jet printed components with a low‐loss, thermally stable dielectric are demonstrated using benzocyclobutene. Ink formulation and in‐line droplet evaporation control support high‐quality, versatile, and stable printing performance. A specialized measurement for low‐loss materials reveals promising microwave properties, which, combined

A compact and lightweight two-dimensional gimbal for inter-satellite laser communication applications

open access: yesOptics Express, 2019
To achieve precise alignment, tracking and pointing, inter-satellite laser communication generally requires a two-dimensional gimbal. To satisfy the requirements of space applications, the gimbal needs to be high-precision and as small as possible. To meet this need, we designed a small and lightweight gimbal assembly.
