A Novel, Microscale, Distributable Sensor Technology for Ionizing Radiation
SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: DTRA14B004Terrorist use of radioactive nuclear materials via nuclear and/or radiological dispersion devices (dirty bombs) is a serious threat. Therefore, it is critical to detect the proliferation of nuclear material. Critical challenges facing this objective include: (a) high sensitivity detection of signature emissions (e.g., gamma rays) from common radioactive isotopes behind shielding, and (b) cost-effe ...

Application Specific Integrated Circuit for Avionic Component Health Monitoring
SBC: MANAGEMENT SCIENCES INC Topic: MDA14T001Management Sciences is widely recognized for its passive instrumentation module that runs Bayesian algorithms which monitor signatures to assess the health and remaining life of electronic and mechanical components. New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (NM Tech) is our research partner. Our approach is to translate a current microelectronic module into an 1-in x 1-in application specif ...

Base Metal Electrode Capacitor Test Methods
SBC: FUNDO SCIENCE CORPORATION Topic: MDA14T003Miniaturized base metal electrodes (BME) multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) are of great interest for future missile applications as designers are striving to achieve smaller, lighter, cheaper, faster and better electronic assemblies without sacrificing long-term performance. Unfortunately, screening, reliability and qualifications criteria are either not available or not standardized. In the ...

Better GaN substrates through HVPE on bulk AlN substrates
SBC: Crystal IS, Inc. Topic: N/ASingle-crystal aluminum nitride substrates will be used for epitaxial growth of GaN by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE). The relatively close match in crystal structure, in chemical compatibility, and in thermal expansion should allow much high quality(and much thicker) GaN layers to be grown. HVPE will allow these GaN epitaxial layers to grown cost effectively.Extremely high power microwave ...

Compact Laser Drivers for Photoconductive Semiconductor Switches
SBC: ASR Corporation Topic: DTRA16A004A compact laser driver will allow photoconductive semiconductor switches to be used in small EMP simulator "building blocks" (EMPBB). Combined with a battery powered on-board pulsed power system, these EMPBBs will allow the construction of flexible EMP test facilities with nothing more than a single fiber optic timing connection to each EMPBB.

Decision Making under Uncertainty
SBC: GCAS, Inc. Topic: MDA13T001Our proposed second order uncertainty (SOU) product is a decision making software solution that addresses the problem of providing accurate and precisely defined decision courses of action (COAs) of complex, time-constrained problems in a fraction of the time required by alternative methods striving to achieve the same level of precision. Complex decision situations can deal with large volume of ...

Development of powder bed printing (3DP) for rapid and flexible fabrication of energetic material payloads and munitions
SBC: MAKEL ENGINEERING, INC. Topic: DTRA16A001This program will demonstrate how additive manufacturing technologies can be used with reactive and high energy materials to create rapid and flexible fabrication of payload and munitions. Our primary approach to this problem will be to use powder bed binder printing techniques to print reactive structures. The anticipated feedstock will consist of composite particles containing all reactant spe ...

3D-Printed Lightweight Optics for Directed Energy Systems
SBC: OPTIMAX SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: MDA13T009It is proposed that using additive manufacturing to fabricate a lightweight optic would result in a weight reduction of the optical system, since 3D-printing provides superior flexibility in the geometric design of the lightweight optic. In addition, the conventional approach to lightweight an optic requires machining of mechanically-hard optical substrates such as SiC, which is time-intensive an ...
