Nanophase Technology for Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) Battery Safety
SBC: Applied Colloids Topic: OSD09EP1Many of the safety incidents that occur with lithium-ion batteries are due to the carbon anode currently in use. Incidents can occur that include overcharging in the system, which causes lithium metal to plate out of the cell and passivation at the surfaces of the electrodes in the cell, which can also cause an incident. Applied Colloids proposes the use of its proprietary nanomaterials in a "ro ...

Innovative Surface Treatments for Solar Cells
SBC: APPLIED THIN FILMS, INC Topic: AF073095Pursuits of highly efficient and reliable solar cells place high demands on the materials and processes used in their fabrication. For extraterrestrial cells, specific efficiency is of utmost importance, and thus the ability to reduce module weight without impacting efficiency is highly desirable. Flexible solar cells are a new direction in solar cell technology and robust substrates are required. ...

Environmentally Friendly Cold Plasma Coating Removal Techniques
SBC: ATMOSPHERIC PLASMA SOLUTIONS, INC. Topic: AF081041The DOD requires an environmentally friendly, rapid, and non-destructive method to selectively remove coatings from composite substrates. Atmospheric Plasma Solutions Inc. (APS) has developed a cold atmospheric plasma process to accomplish this goal. Current processes for the removal of coatings from composite materials are slow, expensive, and potentially damaging to the environment. APS has de ...

Solid Propellant Shock to Detonation Modeling and Formulation
SBC: BUCKMASTER RESEARCH Topic: AF08T003Determining the hazard classification of new propellant formulations is important for transportation safety and storage concerns. To avoid costly grain redesign and additional testing, a model that adequately predicts the shock sensitivity, including the outcome of the Naval Ordnance Laboratory Large Scale Gap Test, of modern solid propellants is required. The goals of this proposal are to develop ...

Robust Wideband Aircraft Altitude Estimation for Over-the-Horizon HF Radar
SBC: STRAD Corporation Topic: AF083184Robust altitude estimation for over-the-horizon HF radar requires a combination of advanced signal processing and high fidelity ionospheric propagation modeling. Since aircraft height is manifested in closely-spaced direct and ground-bounce multipath reflections off the target, we propose two new high resolution signal processing methods for discriminating small time delay differences from a seque ...

The Design of Defensive Software Systems
SBC: Computer Measurement Laboratory, LLC Topic: OSD09IA3CML proposes to extend its current work in dynamic kernel monitoring for attack recognition and mitigation. The focus of this proposal is on mitigating the effects of an attack on executing software process by an individual user. The object of interest is the mapping of the activity of a user of a software system onto a model of their normal use of this software. In the construction of a mathe ...

Ultra-Low Noise Amplifier for Enhanced Signal Intelligence (SIGINT) Detection
SBC: EPIR TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: AF083154We propose a low noise amplifier for receiver front ends in wideband communication systems. The circuit will exploit wide band noise reduction techniques such as active noise cancellation. High frequency, wide bandwidth signals have several advantages ranging from high data rate communications to high resolution RADAR. However, the biggest challenge in realizing these systems is the limitations in ...
