Engineered Biological Cement for Surface Hardening in Semi-Aquatic Environments
SBC: BIOSQUEEZE INC Topic: HR001121S000731BioSqueeze, Inc. (BSI) proposes using microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) to meet DARPA’s SBIR program objective of “pushing the utility of biological cement derived from living organisms to produce hardened surfaces in semi-aquatic environments.” Our MICP technology will reduce the effects of beach erosion and greatly improve the ability of vehicles to transition from ...

New Technology and Genetically Engineered Insects for Sustainable Food, Nutrition, Health and Other Applications
SBC: ALL THINGS BUGS LLC Topic: SB163002As the human population grows, it is critical to decrease consumption of materials from the planet and its ecosphere. The world adds 70 million people annually. The UN expects the population to grow to over 9 billion 2050. Climate change, soil degradation, unstable water supply all reduce the ability of traditional farming to satisfy food needs. Population increase and scarcity of resources and fo ...

GHz, Octavespanning Photodetectors for MWIR/LWIR
SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC Topic: SB153002Exploitation of new chip-scale optical frequency comb sources demands improvements in MWIR/LWIR detector performance, including: High speed (5 GHz); high sensitivity (NEP < 1pW/Hz1/2); broad spectral response (Octave); and thermo-electric cooler (TEC) operating temperature. No existing detector meets these demanding performance parameters. Phase I successfully designed and demonstrated an octave s ...

GHz, Octavespanning Photodetectors for MWIR/LWIR
SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC Topic: SB153002Exploitation of new chip-scale optical frequency comb sources demands improvements in the performance of MWIR/LWIR detectors. These detectors must meet the following specifications: High speed ( < 5 GHz), high-sensitivity (NEP < 1pW/Hz^1/2), broad spectral response (Octave), all at TEC operating temperatures. At present, no single detector exists that meet these demanding performance parameters. I ...

Many-Core Acceleration of Common Graph Programming Frameworks
SBC: Sarah Murphy Topic: SB152004We propose creating a new company to deliver accelerated graph-based analytics for modern manycore systems. The work combines advanced multithreading and work-moving typical of HPC but targeted at cloud environments with insight into the structure of the graph to improve spatial locality and an attribute-first query system to dramatically reduce the work required to solve practical graph problems ...

Quasi-Phase Matched Waveguides for Quantum Frequency Conversion
SBC: ADVR, INC. Topic: SB133001This Phase I SBIR effort will examine the feasibility of fabricating quantum frequency conversion (QFC) devices with cutting edge performance to satisfy DARPA quantum information science applications. Quasi-phase matching (QPM) in potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) and lithium niobate (LN) waveguides designed for very low loss will be used to create frequency convertors at arbitrary source and tar ...

An Advanced NDE Approach to Determine the Adhesive Bond Strength
SBC: RESODYN CORPORATION Topic: SB123001Bonded composite materials offer considerable opportunity to reduce manufacturing cost, improve structural performance, and improve fuel efficiency of aircraft. However, bonded composite aircraft structures continue to be a challenge to manufacture due to the certification requirement to determine the strength of the bonds in the structures - before they are placed into service. Current testing te ...
