  2. Development of New Adaptive Polymer Lenses

    SBC: BOULDER NONLINEAR SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: SB092014

    Boulder Nonlinear Systems proposes to develop significantly improved adaptive polymer lenses (APLs) for use in a variety of imaging systems. APLs will be fabricated and characterized for focal length and optical properties. Electro-mechanical actuators will be investigated. An optical zoom system using the APLs developed on this contract will also be designed and included as part of the final r ...

  3. Novel Non-mechanical Liquid Crystal based Foveated Imaging System

    SBC: BOULDER NONLINEAR SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: SB093008

    A novel foveated imaging technology is proposed, suitable for integration into an urban surveillance system. The proposed technology has no moving parts has low power requirements and requires a single imaging camera. The technology exploits the beam steering capabilities of liquid crystal polarization gratings (LCPGs) which diffract light only into the m=±1 orders according to the handedness of ...

  5. Tactile Detection Robotic Hand System

    SBC: Kinea Design, LLC            Topic: SB093005

    By any measure, the human hands and brain form a remarkable system for perception and manipulation. Of particular interest to us is the ability to perform tactual stereognosis: i.e., to identify objects by touch. In a landmark study, Lederman and Klatzky (1987) showed that stereognosis is subserved by a set of stereotypical “exploratory procedures” (EP) such as enclosure for shape, static co ...

  6. Graded AlN/Al2O3 Precursor and Methods to Passivate Micro-Channel Coolers

    SBC: ELTRON RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT, INCORPORATED            Topic: SB101014

    Commercially available micro-channel coolers for high power laser diodes utilize copper's high thermal conductivity and ability to be micro-machined. Unfortunately, these coolers suffer from flow erosion and corrosion by the cooling fluid. Copper's ability to conduct electrical charge furthers the corrosion process and requires the use of deionized water as the heat carrying fluid. These factors i ...

  7. NanoEnhanced Toxic Industrial Chemicals Sensor

    SBC: ENGENIUSMICRO LLC            Topic: SB072001

    This proposal investigates handheld chemical sensors that utilize surface-enhanced Raman spectrometry, or SERS. First, SERS will be developed utilizing nanoporous alumina membranes with selective binders and metallic nanodots. These devices have demonstrated 10^12 enhancement Second, a microfluidic chip will be developed to house the SERS substrate, provide fluid access to the SERS chip, and pr ...

  8. Negative Refraction Superlattice SuperLens

    SBC: LUTRONICS            Topic: SB072035

    This Phase II project is the continuation of the successful Phase I effort on developing new negative index metamaterials for future optics applications. The proposed technology will tackle those problems associated with existing metamaterial designs, including their need for using advanced nanofabrications, strong energy dissipation associated with the use of metals, and cost ineffectiveness, by ...

  9. AlGaN based detectors for Solar Blind Focal Plane Arrays

    SBC: MP Technologies, LLC            Topic: SB093011

    The overall objective of the proposed project is to develop the feasibility of large format solar-blind focal plane arrays (FPAs) based on wide band-gap III-Nitride based optoelectronic sensor elements hybridized to silicon based read-out integrated circuits (ROICs). MP Technologies and the proposed subcontractor (the Center for Quantum Devices at Northwestern University) have already demonstrate ...

  10. Electrically-Pumped III-Nitride Terahertz Intersubband lasers

    SBC: MP Technologies, LLC            Topic: SB082049

    The objective of the proposed project is to demonstrate III-Nitride based terahertz intersubband quantum cascade lasers operating at near room temperature. III-Nitrides have a large band gap and band offset that has generated recent interest for the realization of short wavelength (1.55 um) telecommunications lasers. However, in addition to the large band offset that makes short wavelengths pos ...
