FACT: Fast and Accurate Detection of Counterfeit Microelectronics
SBC: Caspia Technologies LLC Topic: DHS221003As outsourced microelectronic manufacturing grows, the safety and security of U.S. consumers becomes increasingly threatened by potential counterfeit electronics. Current counterfeit inspection techniques are labor intensive, time consuming, and impractical to use by field agents located on remote sites, away from major facilities, and with limited expertise. The proposed work, Fast and Accurate D ...

Geothermal Energy Generation Using Dormant Wells in High-Temperature Shale Sedimentary Areas
SBC: RENASCENT ENERGY MANAGEMENT LLC Topic: C5513aC55-13a-270233The project embodies a field demonstration of a novel geothermal process via water injection into a shut- in existing well (already drilled & hydraulically fractured, and shut-in) for a short period, and then that injected water, having been heated by contacting the subsurface rock, is produced back to the surface (via the same well through which it was injected). This intermittent p ...

Semiconductor Device Simulation Software with Monte Carlo Based Thermal Transport Modeling
SBC: ADVANCED COOLING TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: C5501bCurrent semiconductor device simulation software adopts Fourier’s law to perform the thermal transport modeling. However, Fourier’s law will become invalid at micro/nano-scale, which can cause a large discrepancy in the thermal and electrical performance between the simulation results and the actual application. To improve the current state-of-the-art, a new semiconductor device simulation sof ...

Optimizing Solid Electrolyte and Air Electrodes for High Energy, 3D Na-Air Battery
SBC: DAYLYTE, INC. Topic: C5318cC53-18c-271136The lack of affordable large-scale batteries makes electric vehicles too expensive for most consumers and makes renewable energy storage financially impractical for almost everyone. Although Li-ion battery prices have fallen over the past three decades, they are threatening to rise higher as Li-ion production for electric vehicles is predicted to consume the world’s high-grade coba ...

Rapid and Tunable Cooling Technology for Vacuum Furnaces
SBC: ADVANCED COOLING TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: C4918aC49-18a-271181The need for high-temperature furnaces for neutron scattering experiments has been increasing considerably. One of the major limiting factors of these furnaces is the cooling rate. Currently, the vacuum furnace relies on radiation to dissipate heat and takes at least 2 hours to cool the furnace low enough to safely open for a sample change. This results in significant limitations of ...

Rare Earth Metals Recycling by Hydrogen Reduction of REOs/Salts
SBC: POLYKALA TECHNOLOGIES LLC Topic: C5127aC51-27a-271194Rare earth elements (REEs) are crucial to the production of green energy motors in wind turbines, hybrid cars, electric vehicles, and electronic devices. REEs are also widely used in defense systems, including precision-guided munitions, radar systems, avionics, night vision equipment, satellites and guided missiles. China dominates the REEs production and exports and is continuing t ...

Novel Design for Passenger Railcar Retention Systems
SBC: PROTECTION ENGINEERING CONSULTANTS LLC Topic: 23FR2Additional passenger fatalities and injuries can occur in rollover-type derailment accidents due to failures of glazing retention mechanisms on passenger railcars. In recent accidents, a key failure mode is shearing off the external rubber gasket that secures the glazing panes as the side of the railcar drags along the ground. Once the gasket fails, the glazing pane is pushed inside, leaving an op ...

CySense: Hardware-assisted Cyberattack Detection Engine
SBC: Caspia Technologies LLC Topic: DHS231001Cyberattacks are a growing concern in every market with network-connected devices. Attacks such as ransomware, malware, spyware, spoofing, botnets, and more, can result in intellectual property theft, system downtime, reputation damage, and unfortunately loss of life. Most cyberattack detection techniques are limited in scalability and detection efficacy as the cyberattack landscape is constantly ...
