Extended Short-Wavelength Infrared (SWIR) Focal Plane Arrays (FPA) for Hyperspectral Imaging
SBC: NOUR LLC Topic: A16042Hyperspectral imaging at full short- and extended short-wavelength infrared spectral band (0.9 – 2.5 µm) has important military applications. When used for imaging, a SWIR camera can operate at night using light reflected off the subject in the scene, generating high resolution images with details such as shadows and surface roughness. Compared to thermal infrared imaging, SWIR images look more ...

High-strength Nanostructured Silver for Shaped Charge/EFP Liner Applications
SBC: QUESTEK INNOVATIONS LLC Topic: A16016Recent research by the Army has indicated that silver-based alloys will serve as a superior replacement material for tantalum liners in explosively formed projectiles (EFPs). EFPs must have high ductility while experiencing very high strain rates (104-107 s-1) in order to form coherent jets. Under the Phase I SBIR program, QuesTek Innovations LLC, a global leader in Integrated Computational Materi ...

Adaptation of Ferrium® M54 for personal armor
SBC: QUESTEK INNOVATIONS LLC Topic: A16065QuesTek Innovations will continue to pursue its approach of ausforming Ferrium® M54® to adapt it for personal armor applications. Technical feasibility was demonstrated during the Phase I program through novel material processing at an intermediate scale, characterization, and testing. Phase II will involve full scale production of material as well as the development of process-structure-propert ...

High Speed Low Loss Quantum Optical Switch for 1550nm band
SBC: NUCRYPT LLC Topic: A16095Optical switches that are simultaneously fast (sub-nanosecond), low loss (< 1 dB), and add low noise (< 10^-5 added noise photons per mode) are not available commercially, but would be an important tool for manipulating quantum signals. It is important for such a switch to operate near 1550 nm, as this is the lowest loss wavelength in standard optical fibers and as such is desirable for distributi ...

Improved III-V Antimonide-Based Superlattice Materials From Growth and Defect Modeling
SBC: SIVANANTHAN LABORATORIES, INC. Topic: A15041Absorber layers based on Type-II superlattices (T2SLs) composed of III-V compound semiconductors (e.g. InAs and InSb) are a promising sensor technology for infrared imaging; however, carrier lifetimes are often significantly shorter than expected, particularly in InAs/InAsSb LWIR T2SL designs that should provide high carrier lifetimes. There is strong evidence that the short lifetime results from ...

Application of ICME to Optimize Processing of State-of-the-art Gear Steels in Additive Manufacturing
SBC: QUESTEK INNOVATIONS LLC Topic: A15104Additive manufacturing (AM) is a novel process of fabricating components in a layer-by-layer method under the control of computer-aided design (CAD) information, rather than by the traditional use of casting molds and forming dies. Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME) methodologies are effective tools to reconfigure the materials development process and accelerate implementation o ...

Mobile Military CO2 Refrigeration
SBC: CREATIVE THERMAL SOLUTIONS, INC. Topic: A14054Refrigerant phase-out schedules for currently used HFC refrigerants are being put in place globally and affect commercial and military cooling applications. Being a natural, non-toxic, non-flammable refrigerant with a much lower Global Warming Potential, carbon dioxide (CO2) is seen as a promising future refrigerant candidate. In Phase I, Creative Thermal Solutions (CTS) provided a successful proo ...

Multi-Spectral Threat Warning Adjunct Sensor
SBC: EPIR, INC. Topic: A17052EPIR Inc. and Brimrose Corp. propose to design and fabricate an adjunct sensor consisting of four spectrometers to cover the wavelength range from ultraviolet (UV) to long-wave infrared (LWIR). Each spectrometer is an integration of an acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) with either Si- or HgCdTe (MCT)- based photo-detector (PD). The sensor will be used to aid the existing Missile Warning/Hostile ...

Wireless Compatible Digital Train Line (WiDTL) for Passenger Type Vehicles in a Train Consist
SBC: Sharma & Associates, Inc. Topic: 151FR1The Next Generation Equipment Committee (NGEC) developed a standard for specifying the use of an Ethernet based digital train line (DTL) network to replace the COMM line for passenger trains. These specifications are PRIIA 305‐919 Digital Train Line Hardware and PRIIA 305‐920 Digital Train Line Software. The intent Is to eventually allow for the improvement of passenger train control. DTL spec ...
