Advances in electronics are responsible for major improvements in NASA's sensing and detection capabilities for future space missions. Technologies such as charge-transfer devices, tunable diode lasers, millimeter and submillimeter wave solid-state receiver components, large-scale circuit integration, new electronic materials and processing techniques, and novel detector electronics are contributing to the goal of a tenfold increase in the capacity of data collection from future platforms and will be used for space exploration and utilization.
