Prediction of Emergent SCIENce and Technology (PRESCIENT)
SBC: Systems & Technology Research LLC Topic: DTRA162005We propose to develop Prediction of Emergent SCIENce & Technology (PRESCIENT), a system that mines a text corpus of scientific patents and publications to discover emerging technologies that may impact WMD or CWMD. PRESCIENT will take as input patents and

Standoff Detector using Large-Volume Advanced Scintillation Materials
SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC. Topic: DTRA152008From 1993 to 2013, sixteen incidents involving highly enriched uranium associated with illegal activity has been reported to the IAEA.A gun-type of weapon would require roughly 25 kg of highly enriched uranium (HEU), which is easily deployed.Part of the defense is layered detection using standoff detection.Though detection of HEU is difficult, RMD has developed a number of large-volume scintillati ...

Integrated Multi-mode Handheld RIID
SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC. Topic: DTRA152007The goal of the project is to develop a handheld instrument that detects, identifies, and categorizes radioactive sources based on gamma, thermal-, and fast-neutron signatures. Existing radioisotope identification devices (RIIDs) are typically biased toward gamma spectroscopy; some instruments may use an additional inefficient neutron counter in form of a He-3 tube. The recent development of mat ...

MEMS Chip for Chemical Vapor Sampling and Analysis
SBC: AGILTRON, INC. Topic: DTRA143003Agiltron will develop a new class of chemical vapor analyzers by leveraging Agiltrons development and production of micro-electrical-mechanical systems (MEMS) products and expertise with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) analysis and film fabrication. Our approach capitalizes on integration of these separate technologies for the first time to generate a unique and novel functionality that f ...

Lithography Cost Reduction for Rad Hard Integrated Circuits
SBC: SILICON TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Topic: DTRA143008The DoD faces mounting costs for integrated circuits built with advanced technology. Our proposal addresses mixed-signal ASIC design costs and fabrication costs, notably photomask costs and photolithography costs. The ADONIS 1D design methodology has been demonstrated at technologies ranging from 130nm to 16nm. In Phase I of the program, we used ADONIS to design a reference circuit a high-speed c ...

Improvements in Scintillation Technology for Detection of Nuclear Radiation
SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC. Topic: DTRA07004High-resolution scintillation crystals and crystal arrays are important components of current and future handheld and arrayed detectors (used for DOD/DTRA applications), and scintillation spectrometers (routinely used in high energy physics research, medical imaging, diffraction, homeland security, nuclear waste clean-up, nuclear treaty verification and safeguards, and geological exploration). Un ...

Novel Methods to Measure Penetrator Dynamics in Multi-Layer Geometries
SBC: Thornton Tomasetti, Inc. Topic: DTRA07011In Phase I of this effort we analyzed the structural response of a BLU 109 during typical penetration events. Based on these finite element results, we proposed and demsonstrated a simple robust concept for a passive penetrator sensor that identifies the material being penetrated and also correlates strongly with its underground trajectory. Such a sensor would obviously provide valuable informatio ...

Real-Time Portable Neutron Spectroscopy
SBC: MICHIGAN AEROSPACE CORP Topic: DTRA07002A critical gap in homeland security is the inability to efficiently detect and identify kilogram-size samples of Special Nuclear Materials (SNM, uranium and transuranic elements). Penetrating neutron emission is unique to fissionable material and difficult to obscure with passive shielding. The current state of the art in neutron imaging is not suitable for field applications. Michigan Aerospace ...
