Cryptographics Acceleration for Border Gateway Protocol Security (CaBGPSEC)
SBC: ANTARA TEKNIK LLC Topic: 9020177RCurrent Border Gateway System (GBP) does not include provisions for security features and is vulnerable to malicious attacks targeting the control plane. The Internet Engineering Taskforce is developing BGPSEC (BGP with Security) to provide path security for BGP route advertisements. The extension is meant to provide resiliency against route hijacks and Autonomous System (AS) path modifications. ...

Cognitive Residential Heat Pump Fault Detection and Diagnostic Datalogger
SBC: MANAGEMENT SCIENCES INC Topic: 9010173RMillions of heat pumps are used to heat and cool homes and buildings year round. Continuous operation means that components wear out at a greater rate. As a result, maintenance of residential heat pumps is a major cost driver. Current methods focus on reduced use through control settings. Typically, demand has wide swings throughout the day and people are unable to customize controls. Inevitably, ...

Low-Noise Detector Arrays for Raman Spectroscopy
SBC: Aerius Photonics, LLC. Topic: N/AWe propose to demonstrate near infrared (NIR) InGaAs sensor arrays with 55% lower noise than arrays presently available to improve the sensitivity of current spectroscopy systems. The low noise performance will be enabled by the use of low-noise source follower per detector ROICs, which are also used in astronomy with HgCdTe for low noise measurements. With design improvements to current available ...

Development of a High Sensitivity Laser-induced Incandescence Instrument for Characterizing Soot and Carbonaceous Particles
SBC: ARTIUM TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Topic: N/AA high sensitivity laser-induced incandescence system is proposed for the detailed characterization of environmental soot. The Phase 1 effort has clearly demonstrated the feasibility of (1) reducing the lower detection limit of soot volume fraction and increasing the overall measurement range by at least 2 orders of magnitude from what is currently achievable, and (2) providing PM particle size me ...

Holographic Light-Emitting Diode-Based Solar Simulator
SBC: Physical Optics Corporation Topic: N/ANIST is seeking a large area solar simulator to overcome the shortcomings of current solar simulators. To meet this need, Physical Optics Corp. (POC) proposed to develop a new Holographic Light-Emitting-Diode-Based Solar Simulator (HOLIOS) based on holographic gratings, holographic diffuser, high-power light emitting diodes with electronic drivers, collimating and projection optics, and photodetec ...

Imaging Variable Kinetic Energy Electron Analyzer
SBC: R. Browning Consultants Topic: N/AThe objective of this proposal is to create a prototype imaging variable kinetic energy electron analyzer in the range 0.1 to 8 keV for use with an X-ray excitation source. The imaging analyzer is to have a target imaging spatial resolution of 100 nm. The X-ray excitation source will be a synchrotron light source. The instrument can be described as an X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) microsc ...

Bragg Grating Enhanced Narrowband Single Photon SPDC Source
SBC: Gener8, LLC Topic: N/ASpontaneous Parametric Down Conversion (SPDC) is currently an active research area in quantum communications (QC) to develop entangled single photon sources. However, the bandwidth of current SPDC sources is too broad for many applications. NIST researchers have modeled a solution to this problem that reduces the bandwidth by >50. We propose to fabricate a prototype of the NIST device by developin ...

Digital Micromirror Device Detection Scheme for Transmission Scanning Electron Microscopy
SBC: RADIABEAM TECHNOLOGIES, LLC Topic: N/AAccurate quantitative characterization of materials is crucial for a wide range of industrial and research applications. New transmission scanning electron microscopy (t-SEM) methods have the potential for high-resolution imaging similar to transmission electron microscopy (TEM) with a less expensive, more widely available SEM system. In Phase I, RadiaBeam Technologies demonstrated the feasibility ...

Advanced Tactile Sensing for Dexterous Robot Hands in Industrial Automation and Assembly
SBC: Syntouch L.L.C. Topic: N/ARobotic actuators exceed human speed, accuracy, and strength, but human hands are regarded as the ultimate in dexterity. We propose this is due absent human-like tactile sensing and intelligent reflexive behaviors in robots. We’ve created multimodal compliant tactile sensors that mimic the sensory ability of the human fingertip and algorithms that fill this absence. In this research we will inte ...
