SYLMAR, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 19, 2006--Quintessence Photonics Corporation, a subsidiary of QPC Lasers, Inc. (OTCBB
PCI), a world leader in the design and manufacture of high-brightness, high-power semiconductor lasers, announced today that it has won a US Government Contract to develop and deliver high-power Mid-Infrared Lasers. The Phase III award is a follow on to previous development activity funded by the US Army which culminates in the delivery of semiconductor lasers which emit light in the Mid-Infrared wavelength regime.
Low-cost, high-power mid-infrared have a variety of defense and homeland security applications, including protection of aircraft, ships and armored vehicles from heat-seeking missiles and standoff detection of chemical weapons. Free space optical communications and imaging on the battlefield benefit from mid-infrared sources since, unlike visible and near-infrared wavelengths, communications at mid-infrared wavelengths are relatively immune to fog, smoke and solar background impairments.

精华（Quintessence）光影学公司赢得了美国政府的合同，内容是关于中红外激光；设计用于混合热探测（heatseeking）导弹和化学武器的探测
SYLMAR, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 19, 2006--精华（Quintessence）光影学公司是一个QPC激光的一个辅助公司，是一个设计和制造高亮度，高计量半导体激光的世界领先者。该公司于今日宣布已经赢得了美国政府的合同开发和交付高济量的中红外激光。第三阶段（phase III）的回报是紧接着前阶段由美国陆军的资助的开发行动，这个行动的顶点就是交付半导体激光器，它能够发出中红外波长的激光。
低成本，高剂量的中红外具有多种防御和国家安全的应用价值，包括帮助航空器，船和装甲车防御热跟踪（Heat－seeking）导弹和离岸化学武器的探测。在战场上，自由空间内的光通讯和成像也得益于中红外源，因为与可见光喝进红外波长得光源不同，利用中红外光进行通讯可以相对容易地穿透雾、烟尘并能够避免太阳光背景对于通讯效果地损坏。
关于精华光影学公司：
精华光影学公司(www.qpclasers.com)是一个在开发和商业化高亮度和高剂量半导体激光地世界领先者，包括工业应用，国防和医用市场。
