Described herein is a method and system for providing a countermeasure
against laser detection systems using nanocomponent material that is
tailored to cloak or obscure a target from detection by transmitted laser
radiation. The nanodot material absorbs and/or down-converts the
transmitted laser radiation. Similarly, described herein is a method and
system for providing a countermeasure against laser systems intended to
blind a target through the use of a specifically engineered nanocomponent
material for absorbing and/or down-converting the radiation from the
laser system.
