Widely Tunable III-V Based Epsilon-near-zero tunneling diodes for room-temperature infrared detectors and light sources
SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC Topic: OSD21C004High performance infrared photodetectors and light sources that span infrared wavelengths from 2 to 14 microns and beyond are critical to DoD. At the longer wavelengths these devices demand stringent cooling requirements, which add size, weight, power consumption and cost. In this program we are developing tunnel diodes based on epsilon near zero (ENZ) metal-insulator-metal (MIM) rectenna structur ...

Ultra-Wideband Transmission Using Sub-Wavelength Antennas on Airborne Platforms
SBC: LONG WAVE INC. Topic: AF19BT007We propose an STTR Phase II program to build, test and demonstrate a medium power (100 W) prototype VLF transmitter (3-30 kHz) that has been fully designed and simulated in Phase I. The key advantage of our proposed transmitter is the ability to change frequencies anywhere within the VLF band essentially instantaneously, while also removing the need for a top hat or a loading inductor which ordina ...

A Nanoporous Aerogel for Improvement of In-Ear Hearing Protection
SBC: OTO-Biomechanics, LLC Topic: AF21ATCSO1Despite the availability of active hearing protection devices, noise-proof helmets, and earmuffs, passive in-ear hearing protection devices are still widely used by military personnel in loud work environments and during operations due to their versatility and low economic cost. While these passive devices offer adequate sound pressure attenuation, an undesired effect persists known as the occlusi ...

High Energy Batteries for UAVs
SBC: SKYDWELLER US INC. Topic: AF20CTCSO1Li-ion batteries have been a key enabler for unmanned aircraft over the past decade, but progress has stalled. When the Solar Impulse II aircraft flew around the world in 2016 using only solar cells and batteries, it used the highest performing Li-ion batteries on the market with a cell-level energy density of 261 whr/kg. Nearly 5 years later, the best Li-ion batteries on the market have experienc ...
