@inproceedings{gray_muth_carr_2016, title={A MEMS infrared thermopile with phononic crystal structures and carbon nanotube absorption layer}, DOI={10.1109/icsens.2016.7808771}, abstractNote={We have fabricated MEMS infrared thermopiles from a silicon-on-insulator substrate where the buried oxide layer was used to form a membrane for thermal isolation of the detection area. The silicon wires of the thermocouples were patterned with a phononic crystal structure that consisted of 200nm holes on a 400nm pitch. The silicon was degenerately doped using a spin on dopant process to create the p, n-type regions. The absorption layer used was a 20um tall vertically-aligned, multi-walled, carbon nanotube layer. We measured the performance of our devices to have a D∗ of 3 ∗ 10<sup>7</sup> cmHz<sup>0.5</sup>W<sup>−1</sup> and a time response of 5–8 msec. We believe the performance of our design can be improved to exceed a D∗ of 10<sup>8</sup> cmHz<sup>0.5</sup>W<sup>−1</sup> by patterning the absorption layer.}, booktitle={2016 ieee sensors}, author={Gray, K.

However many underwater systems have limited power capacity or limited weight budget. The use of a modulating retroreflector eliminates the need for a transmitting laser on the data bearing platform and reduces the pointing requirements by retroreflecting the modulated light back to the interrogating source. Blue/green operation of a MEMS Fabry-Perot modulator was demonstrated at data rates of 500 kbps and 1 Mbps in a 7.7 meter tank with water conditions varied by the addition of Maalox as a scattering agent.}, booktitle={Oceans 2010}, author={Cox, W.
