 
Dr. Danhong H. Huang
Dr. Danhong H. Huang (Space Vehicles), is a pioneer in the research of quantum device physics. His expertise in theoretical semiconductor physics has led to breakthroughs in space sensor technologies that will reduce the size and cost of satellite sensor systems and enhance obscured target detection, continuous all weather monitoring and chemical/biological weapons detection. Dr. Huang was one of two people to develop a physical model for understanding the possible photoluminescence cooling of a lattice in semiconductors.

Sensors detect and monitor crack growth in airport component parts. (AFRL photo)
During the Rapid Structural Health Monitoring Designs for Structural Hot Spots testing, AFRL engineers used sensors such as the ones shown to detect and monitor crack growth in a test article. Studying the ability to detect these cracks will help researchers move closer toward a fieldable Structural Health Monitoring system for real-time damage detection on aircraft. (AFRL photo)
