Directed Energy Solutions (DES) and the University of Denver Research Institute (DRI) propose a program aimed at revolutionary advancement of the current technology used in powering high-energy chemical iodine lasers. Our approach is to use a unique generator with a high specific surface area and compact generator volume to produce high yields of singlet delta oxygen (SDO) and transport the flow ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The field of cranio-maxillofacial (CMF) surgery involves the correction of congenital and acquired deformities of the skull and face. These include dentofacial deformities, congenital deformities, and defects after tumor ablation, post-traumatic defects, and deformities of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). In the United States each year, a significant number o ...

Military and space-application FPGAs are invaluable for improving defense capabilities and deployment schedules; however, they also create a potential vulnerability if their configuration code can be discerned or if they can be directly used in unauthorized systems. Modern IC debug and repair techniques, such as PICA and FIB, represent formidable attack tools, which when combined with other attac ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of this application is to enable more efficient and cost-effective utilization of solid-state NMR systems for health care research. Solid-state NMR spectroscopy is an important tool for the analysis of pharmaceuticals and biological compounds such as proteins, but is often not used due to the length of time required to collect data. The specific a ...
