High Resolution Diffraction Imaging of Natural Fracture Zones in Unconventional Shale Reservoirs for Well Placement Optimization
SBC: Z-Terra Inc. Topic: 15cAccounting for the geologic conditions in unconventional shales is an important factor in an optimization problem. Placing the wells too close wastes drilling money. Placing the wells too far leaves resources in the ground. Given the fact that a well in unconventional shales may cost $12-20 million, optimizing the well placement of hundreds of wells in a field becomes a very large cost savings and ...

Quantifying Appropriate De-rating of 1.2kV, 1.7kV and 3.3kV SiC MOSFETs Subject to Cosmic Rays
SBC: MONOLITH SEMICONDUCTOR INC Topic: 11aIn the budget period 1 of the phase-II proposal, the effect of terrestrial cosmic rays on the failure rate of 1.2kV, 1.7kV and 3.3kV SiC power MOSFETs will be studied. The goal of the study is to quantify the appropriate breakdown voltage de-rating needed for SiC MOSFETs subject to cosmic rays. The failure rate of SiC power MOSFETs as a function of the reverse blocking voltage will be determined a ...

Low Z Thin Film Stripper Foils, Targets and X-Ray Windows
SBC: UHV TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Topic: 39eThe latest rare isotope and ion beam accelerator facilities used for important nuclear physics experiments require free standing thin film stripper foils, targets and x-ray windows made from low atomic number (low Z) elements such as Be, B and C. It is expected that the currently used thin films will need to be improved due to the much higher beam power densities in the next generation nuclear res ...

100W Mode-locked Green Laser for GaAs Photoemission Guns
SBC: ADVALUE PHOTONICS INC Topic: 38eTo address the DoE need for a high-power laser source used for synchronous photoinjection of GaAs photoemission guns, AdValue Photonics proposes to develop a radio-frequency synchronized 100W mode-locked green laser source at a GHz rate. Previously-demonstrated GHz-rate modelocked solid-state/fiber lasers suffer from a reliability issue due to the use of fragile free-space bulk optics for their la ...

Modular Addressable Research Irradiator using Flat Panel X-ray Sources
SBC: STELLARRAY INC Topic: 02b"The National Academy of Sciences issued a report in February 2008 detailing isotope replacement priorities in the interests of national security [National Research Council, 2008] . 137Cs used in “self-contained” irradiators was identified as the single most dangerous isotope in the inventory, owing to its long half life 30+ years) and production as cesium chloride salt, which me ...

High Energy Sub-100 Femtosecond Fiber Lasers at 2 Micron
SBC: ADVALUE PHOTONICS INC Topic: 15dThere is an urgent need to develop a new high-energy 2m ultrafast fiber laser system in order to achieve the optimized efficiency of the ESASE process, which is beneficial in areas ranging from atomic and molecular sciences to chemical, materials, and biological studies. To reach the mid-IR wavelengths for ESASE application, the traditional way is to shift the wavelengths of these commercially ava ...

Ultra Lightweight High Pressure Hydrogen Fuel Tanks Reinforced with Carbon Nanotubes
SBC: APPLIED NANOTECH, INC. Topic: 03aAt the present time, carbon fiber tanks are very expensive, with the high pressure vessel industry standard Toray T700 carbon fiber costing between $20 and $50 per kilogram alone. At this high price, the carbon fiber currently comprises as much as 75% of the overall tank cost and is a major roadblock on the path to commercialization. To make hydrogen fuel cells in early market and light-duty vehic ...

High Specific Activity Sm-153 by Post Irradiation Isotope Separation
SBC: IsoTherapeutics Group LLC Topic: 46bSamarium-153 (153Sm) has ideal nuclear properties for a variety of therapeutic applications; however, it is only available in low specific activity (radioactivity/weight) form. While large quantities can be made by the 152Sm(n,)153Sm reaction in a medium flux reactor such as at the University of Missouri Research Reactor Center (MURR), typical irradiation parameters result in less th ...

Refactor++: Automated Support for Program Enhancements
SBC: Semantic Designs Inc Topic: 62cScience and engineering depend on evolving ever more complex software, typically coded in C++, to investigate phenomena or design sophisticated products. The rate of delivered value for such software is often limited by its organization, and scientists/engineers spend significant effort trying to understand the code organization and restructuring the code to enable the next interesting concept o ...

Tantalum Tube for Diffusion Barriers
SBC: Shear Form Inc Topic: 64aDiffusion barriers used in Nb3Sn wire are currently fabricated by wrapping Ta sheet into a tube with an overlap seam. The result of current practice is non- uniform deformation in the Ta sheet as it thins by wire drawing because of non-uniform grain size and texture. In addition, a significant portion of the diffusion barrier is twice as thick as need be. The overlap is wasteful of Ta and produc ...
