The project described involves one of the most important aspects of a lightwave communications system that of detection of the transmitted signal. This must be done with the capability of high speed and with little noise interference. While this can be done the method by which the detectors are made is difficult and costly. The effort described in the proposal involves a simplified approach which could not only make the detectors superior but also more cheaply and by a significant amount.

所描述的项目涉及光波通信系统最重要的方面之一，即探测传输信号。这必须以高速和小噪声干扰的能力来完成。虽然这是可以做到的，但制造探测器的方法是困难和昂贵的。提案中描述的努力涉及一种简化的方法，这种方法不仅可以使探测器性能优越，而且还可以大大降低成本。
