Suppression of Wind Turbine Clutter from Radar Data
SBC: MATRIX RESEARCH INC Topic: AF12BT05ABSTRACT: It is well known that wind turbine clutter (WTC) presents a significant challenge to detecting targets in civilian and military applications. The large radar cross section (RCS) of wind turbines, combined with their significant range of Doppler spread, make traditional clutter mitigation techniques effectively useless. The objective of this Phase I effort is to develop a physically con ...

Terahertz Frequency Materials Testing at Cryogenic Temperatures and in High Magnetic Fields
SBC: Lake Shore Cryotronics, Inc. Topic: AF12BT08ABSTRACT: Terahertz (THz) spectroscopies offer unmatched non-contact probing of low-energy excitations underlying electronic transport and magnetism in a wide range of novel materials. To-date, expensive and complex THz Time Domain Spectroscopy (THz-TDS) systems are the most common THz source used in these studies. Lower cost, continuous wave (CW-THz) spectroscopy systems can offer comparable per ...

Optical Refrigeration for Dramatically Improved Cryogenic Technology
SBC: ThermoDynamic Films LLC Topic: AF10BT02ABSTRACT: Optical refrigeration is currently the only demonstrated all-solid-state cryocooling technology. Optical cryocoolers are devices that use laser light to cool small crystal or glass cooling elements. The cooling element absorbs the laser light and reradiates it at higher energy, an example of anti-Stokes fluorescence. The difference between the energy of the outgoing and incoming light c ...
