Over the past twenty years two-dimensional spatial light modulators (SLM's) have been identified as a critical element in a many applications. While large electro-optic effects can be engineered in composite structures such as multiple quantum-wells or liquid crystals, SLM's based on ceramic materials in the PbLaZrTiO3 (PLZT) family of compounds show a unique combination of high transparency iind ...

Electrically tunable optical filters have been identified as a critical element in many applications, including imaging and automated target recognition applications. While large electro-optic effects can be engineered in composite structures such as multiple quantum-wells or liquid crystals, SLMs based on ceramic materials in the PbLaZrTiO3 (PLZT) family of compounds show a unique combination of ...

A new textile process has been developed by Techniweave that employs multi-directional weaving in the fabrication of integrally woven, net shaped, complex components. The process has been demonstrated manually and has been shown through design of equipment to be feasible for an automated system. The process offers several attributes which are not, in combination available with any other process. C ...

This proposal suggests the development of an uncooled ceramic two-stroke-cycle oil-free turbocharged diesel engine with a flywheel-integrated motor/generator for the engine and a shaft-integrated very-high-speed motor/generator for the turbocharger. The engine is to provide mechanical power output for propulsion, while the turbogenerator provides conditioned electric power for on-board electronics ...

THE RESEARCH IS FOCUSED ON EVALUATING THE FEASIBILITY OF USING A NOVEL ELECTROFORMING PROCESS TO PRODUCE LOW LOSS FERRITE COMPONENTS FOR APPLICATION IN THE EHF REGION. THE PROPOSED PROCESS HAS POTENTIAL FOR REDUCING CONDUCTION LOSS AND IMPROVING DIMENSIONAL CONTROL. ADDITIONAL BENEFITS REGARDING CONFIGURATION AND RELIABILITY ARE ANTICIPATED.
