Advanced Epitaxial Lift-Off Quantum Dot Photovoltaic Devices
SBC: MICROLINK DEVICES INC Topic: T301We propose to develop a high-efficiency, triple-junction, epitaxial lift-off (ELO) solar cell by incorporating quantum dots (QDs) within the current-limiting subcell. We intend to leverage existing QD epitaxy processes developed by the Rochester Institute of Technology and combine this with MicroLink's expertise in multi-junction cell growth and ELO technology. We will employ QDs to enhance ...

Infrared Microspectrometer based on MEOMS Lamellar Grating Interferometer
SBC: EPIR TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: T401Infrared spectroscopy is an invaluable detection and measurement tool intensively used in Earth Science, Solar Physics and Astrophysics experiments pursued from satellite platforms. The geometrical characteristics and sensitivity of satellite infrared spectroscopy systems is often determined or limited by their optical elements. Improvements in optical components allow one to reduce the mass and i ...

Multi-Robot Systems for Subsurface Planetary Exploration
SBC: ASTROBOTIC TECHNOLOGY INC Topic: T801The proposed innovation is a heterogeneous multi-robot team developed as a platform for effective subsurface planetary exploration. State-of-art robotic exploration is based on single-robot systems with human controllers augmented by limited automation. This system requires near-constant communication and a single failure results in the end of the mission. A multi-robot system offers more efficien ...

Advanced Flow Analysis Tools for Transient Solid Rocket Motor Simulations
SBC: Tetra Research Corporation Topic: T901The goals of reducing total cost and increasing reliability and safety of access to space continue to be top priorities for NASA. The most immediate propulsion launch challenge involves increasing lift weight from 70 to 130 metric tons by developing the heavy lift Space Launch System (SLS). Solid rocket motor analysis tools are needed to simulate ignition and propellant recession during the burn ...

Novel Design of Orifice Type Control Element for Mitigating Instabilities
SBC: COMBUSTION RESEARCH & FLOW TECHNOLOGY INC Topic: T1001An orifice element is commonly used in liquid rocket engine test facilities to provide a large reduction in pressure over a very small distance in the piping system. Orifice elements are used in propellant lines, feed systems, plume suppression systems and steam ejector trains. While the orifice as a device is largely effective in stepping down pressure, it is also susceptible to a wake-vortex ty ...

High Fidelity Simulation of Jet Noise Emissions from Rectangular Nozzles
SBC: COMBUSTION RESEARCH & FLOW TECHNOLOGY INC Topic: A203The proposed SBIR Phase II program will lead to the validation of a state-of-the-art Large Eddy Simulation (LES) model, coupled with a Ffowcs-Williams-Hawkings (FW-H) farfield acoustic solver, for supporting the development of advanced engine concepts, including innovative flow control strategies for attenuation of their jet noise emissions. During Phase I, the LES/FW-H model was validated against ...

Wideband Single Crystal Transducer for Bone Characterization
SBC: TRS CERAMICS, INC. Topic: X1202TRS proposes to develop a simple-to-use, launch capable, ultrasound transducer that is capable of producing the necessary bandwidth to accurately determine in vivo bone characteristics that correlate to loss of strength in astronauts in long-duration space flights (microgravity). The transducer will be capable of measuring backscatter, attenuation, reflectivity and other ultrasound parameters of ...

Extreme Environment SiC Wireless Sensor Suite for Nuclear Thermal Propulsion Engines
SBC: Arkansas Power Electronics International, Inc. Topic: X203There are a number of critical telemetry measurements to be monitored under continuous field operation, including temperature data across the reactor chamber and the nozzle, pressure data, neutron flux density and flow rate of the propellant. Real-time monitoring of this data in nuclear thermal engines would greatly improve operational safety and performance, reduce operational costs, and signific ...

Large-Area, UV-Optimized, Back-Illuminated Silicon Photomultiplier Arrays
SBC: VOXTEL, INC. Topic: S105Large-area (3m2), UV-sensitive focal plane arrays are needed for observation of air showers from ultra-high energy cosmic rays (JEM-EUSO) as well as for visible-wavelength spectrographic and photometric instruments planned for future telescopes (OWL). Existing photocathode-based technologies for visible and UV instruments lack sensitivity, are bulky, and have limited reliability. Solid-state silic ...
