The COVID-19 pandemic has heightened awareness of airborne pathogens and their role in transmitting infection throughout the population. The threat of airborne pathogens extends beyond SARS-CoV-2. Diseases caused by airborne viruses (Influenza), bacteria (Legionnaires’ disease and Tuberculosis), and fungi (aspergillosis) are also prevalent, with Influenza estimated to cause 200,000–500,000 wor ...

Sivananthan Laboratories (SL) with the University of Iowa as the STTR partner, proposes to develop metasurface-coupled type II superlattice (T2SL) LWIR detectors that are predicted to outperform HgCdTe detectors. We developed in Phase I fundamental understanding of metasurface-coupled T2SLs, likely performance, and issues related to scaling up device structure to form arrays for LWIR imaging. In P ...

  The Oshkosh M1070 is a US Army tank transporter tractor unit that is also used in the military for various operations and military drills. It is a powerful tractor truck with an 8x8 drive configuration and advanced features such as an electronic engine control system to ensure maximum efficiency at all times and an 'air ride' rear suspension to ensure all axles remain in contact with the ground ...

Coupling, Shaft is a mechanical component used to connect two rotating shafts together, allowing the transmission of power and torque. It helps to minimize the effects of misalignment, vibration, and shock and reduces the stress and wear on the connected shafts and their bearings. The Coupling, Shaft (NSN 3010-01-679-7883) listed in Small Business Innovation Program website is an aviation critical ...

Sb-based III-V semiconductor Type-II superlattice (T2SL) materials with band structure-engineered device architectures are groundbreaking for infrared detectors and focal plane arrays (FPAs). T2SL FPAs have become very attractive candidates for various MDA/DOD sensor platforms including air, space, ships, and missiles. T2SL wafers, the starting materials of FPAs, are grown on large substrates usin ...

The objective of this Phase II SBIR proposal is to continue the design and qualification efforts for a single-axis accelerometer (NSN 6610-00-151-6684) and perform detailed design and qualification activities for a Torque Motor (NSN 6105-01-326-8652). During Phase II, Kaney will utilize in-house manufacturing and analysis capabilities to produce drawings and manufacturing/qualification plans for t ...

Kaney Inc. (Kaney) proposes development of a SAR package and development plan for National Stock Number (NSN) 6150-01-629-3728, a Battery Connector Assembly. This battery connector assembly is out of stock at two different suppliers (but available at a third supplier, please see below in Figure 6-1), and the NSN pertains to F-15C and F-15D based platforms including variants currently flown by some ...

Kaney Inc. (Kaney) proposes development of a SAR package and development plan for National Stock Number (NSN) 5995-01-195-9918, a Radio Cable Assembly for the B-1 platform. During Phase I, Kaney will utilize our in-house manufacturing and analysis capabilities to develop Kaney drawings and a manufacturing/qualification plan for this part. Kaney has extensive domain knowledge and capabilities rela ...

Kaney Inc. (Kaney) proposes development of a SAR package and development plan for National Stock Number (NSN) 6110-01-073-3343, a Generator Rack for the C-130 platform. During Phase I, Kaney will utilize our in-house manufacturing and analysis capabilities to develop Kaney drawings and a manufacturing/qualification plan for this part. Kaney has extensive domain knowledge and capabilities related ...

The proposed program will design a microwave interferometer for the purpose of measuring the electron density and other fundamental parameters of Diode-Pumped Alkali Laser (DPAL) gain media. Although several models of the collisional chemistry of DPALs exist, benchmarking such models with experimental measurements has been hampered by the absence of experimental measurements of the electron densit ...
