High energy density capacitors are needed to provide load flexibility to fuel cells as hybrid power supplied for a variety of WMD sensors and detectors. New materials/manufacturing processes are needed to make these electrical power systems man portable. To develop high performance supercapacitors with fast recharge and high discharging rate electrode materials should have very high surface area. ...

PNTS proposes to develop a truly novel implementation of eye-safe terahertz (THz) spectroscopy that is unprecedented in the standoff detection regime for accuracy, low cost, and portability. PNTS has teamed with SC&A, Inc., and researchers from the University of Memphis to create a world class team of research and development personnel. We are proposing a continuous wave terahertz (THz-CW) spect ...

Electronic equipment, especially communication equipment, is extremely vulnerable to various forms of electromagnetic radiation whether natural or man-made due to minimal shielding and high sensitivity to radio waves. An ideal transient hardening device would limit the harmful energy as it enters the circuitry by minimizing the over-voltage. It would have to respond very fast and be able to handl ...
