Single-Photon Lasercom Readout Integrated Circuit (ROIC)
SBC: VOXTEL, INC. Topic: H901To satisfy NASA?s deep-space communications needs, a 128 x 128-element readout integrated circuit (ROIC) will be developed for integration with Geiger-mode (Gm) avalanche photodiode (APD) detector arrays. The ROIC features integrated imaging, background subtraction, and time-resolved (sub-nanosecond) photon-counting functionality. The ROIC, when integrated with InGaAs Gm-APD arrays, will enable ac ...

Large-Area, Multi-Junction, Epitaxial Lift-Off Solar Cells with Backside Contacts
SBC: MICROLINK DEVICES INC Topic: S301In this Phase II program we propose to develop a manufacturable production process to introduce backside contacts to MicroLink Devices? large-area, multi-junction epitaxial lift-off (ELO) solar cells. We will also develop new assembly processes to fabricate flexible Kapton sheets with backside contact ELO solar cells. This enables an important path for cost reduction using fully automated laydown ...

Cyclotronic Plasma Actuator with Arc-Magnet for Active Flow Control
SBC: CU AEROSPACE L.L.C. Topic: A104CU Aerospace and team partner the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign propose to develop a new type of plasma-based flow control actuator, which uses a high-voltage electrode that arcs to a cylindrical grounded electrode within a magnetic field. The result is that an arc plasma can be produced, with a Lorentz force that creates a plasma disc (similar concept to a cyclotron). The thought beh ...

In-Flight Ice Accretion Hazard Mitigation with Low Surface Roughness Aluminum Airfoil
SBC: MICROENGINEERED METALS INC Topic: A109Icing is a major problem for the aviation industry, but it has proven to be a difficult problem to solve as the physical processes that lead to icing are complex and interdependent. Recently, it has been shown that a 4X reduction in surface roughness resulted in a 250% decrease in ice-adhesion strength. Super polishing aluminum slurry and pad technology has been used in preliminary tests to poli ...
