The JPL Microdevices Laboratory: Capabilities and Access

The Microdevices Laboratory (MDL) at JPL is a world-class microdevice and microinstrument research and advanced development center. It houses processing facilities for end-to-end device fabrication based on Si, GaAs, and superconductors down to 0.1 (micro)m feature size. MDL's charter is to develop and demonstrate new microdevice technologies, and to transfer these technologies to NASA users and to industry. In full operation since 1990, MDL has demonstrated rapid prototyping of several new microdevices and technologies.

Special Technology Laboratory (STL) Capabilities

Special Technologies Laboratory (STL), located in Santa Barbara, California, was formed in 1986 to provide specialized solutions to national security problems. This highly diverse science and engineering laboratory includes a team dedicated to supporting the programmatic mission of the NNSA in collaboration with key National Laboratories. STL’s workforce is highly leveraged across a variety of other national security activities. Our culture is one of sponsor focus, collaboration, quick response, and technical achievement. Key staff have training and experience in radiation physics, shock physics, optical spectroscopy, mechanical and electrical engineering, and are supported by seasoned prototype engineers and fabricators. This background has enabled us to develop and advance critical diagnostics for NNSA science experiments.

The role of light microscopy in aerospace analytical laboratories

Light microscopy has greatly reduced analytical flow time and added new dimensions to laboratory capability. Aerospace analytical laboratories are often confronted with problems involving contamination, wear, or material inhomogeneity. The detection of potential problems and the solution of those that develop necessitate the most sensitive and selective applications of sophisticated analytical techniques and instrumentation. This inevitably involves light microscopy. The microscope can characterize and often identify the cause of a problem in 5-15 minutes with confirmatory tests generally less than one hour. Light microscopy has and will make a very significant contribution to the analytical capabilities of aerospace laboratories.
