Paper Numbering: Proceedings of SPIE follow an e-First publication model. A unique citation identifier (CID) number is assigned to each article at the time of publication. Utilization of CIDs allows articles to be fully citable as soon as they are published online, and connects the same identifier to all online and print versions of the publication. SPIE uses a six-digit CID article numbering system structured as follows:

  • The first four digits correspond to the SPIE volume number.

  • The last two digits indicate publication order within the volume using a Base 36 numbering system employing both numerals and letters. These two-number sets start with 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 0A, 0B … 0Z, followed by 10-1Z, 20-2Z, etc. The CID Number appears on each page of the manuscript.

Authors

Numbers in the index correspond to the last two digits of the six-digit citation identifier (CID) article numbering system used in Proceedings of SPIE. The first four digits reflect the volume number. Base 36 numbering is employed for the last two digits and indicates the order of articles within the volume. Numbers start with 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 0A, 0B…0Z, followed by 10-1Z, 20-2Z, etc.

Introduction

This volume contains papers presented at the SPIE Optics + Photonics conference entitled Nanophotonics and Macrophotonics for Space Environments IX. The conference proceedings are primarily comprised of in-progress and advanced research and development in a variety of photonic-based technologies for improving many current space technology applications.

The papers contained within the proceedings are authored by academic, industrial, and government agencies involved in investigating, designing, testing and analyzing photonic concepts, the survivability and reliability of components, and systems for potential and near-term operation in adverse space environments. Of particular interest are space effects that can degrade space technologies, such as near-Earth ionization and displacement radiation, temperature cycling, micrometeorite impacts, interactions with asteroids and comets, and other cosmic events encountered in interstellar and space exploration missions.

Within the proceedings are papers dealing with recent investigations and advances in photonic-based designs for directed-energy fiber-optic laser arrays for planetary defense concepts and future space exploration missions. A variety of polymer, organic and hybrid materials for efficient energy harvesting in space, and recent advances in radiation hardened semiconductors for applications requiring improved components (such as ring lasers, photoconductors, photovoltaic cells and radiation hardened IR detectors) are included in this volume.

Among the many innovative concepts found within these proceedings are applications and relatively new concepts involving the use of atomic clock Rb-based materials and vertical cavity emitting laser technologies for accomplishing radiation hardened space applications, such as precision interferometry sensors, inertial navigation systems, precision time keeping, and fast light enhanced optical gyroscopes. Discussed within these topic areas are novel approaches for achieving stable, light-weight systems and tunable single frequency operation that exceed present-day conventional systems. Of particular interest is the reported developmental progress of inertial navigation systems based on atomic interferometry, which would allow GPS-level precision in a GPS-free or GPS-jammed environment.

The chairs wish to thank the program committee, co-chair, session chairs, authors, and especially the SPIE staff for their excellent assistance and efforts for making this conference a success.
