Ultra-flexible high efficiency photovoltaics- c-Si
SBC: POWERFILM INC Topic: A18067The modern Military has an ever increasing need for power, in particular light weight portable power with high power densities and decreased deployed foot print. Currently packable panels are made from low efficiency light weight Amorphous Silicon or carbon fiber backed crystalline silicon. The weakness of the amorphous silicon technology resides in the power conversion efficiency (watts per unit ...

Develop integrated analog photonic modulator components compatible with photonic foundry production
SBC: PHASE SENSITIVE INNOVATIONS INC Topic: AF171126In phase II work, we will collaborate with Prof. Dennis W. Prather in UD and continue to develop broadband, low VÏ€, high linearity, thin-film lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI) modulators that are fully compatible with silicon photonic integrated circuits (PIC) foundry processes. We will demonstrate a low VÏ€, broadband, small footprint LNOI modulator with hybrid Si/LN or SiN/LN waveguide ...

Photonic Crystal Infrared Emitter (PhIRE)
SBC: FIREFLY PHOTONICS LLC Topic: AF171015The primary objective of this project is to improve the light extraction efficiency of large-format mid-wave infrared (MWIR) and long-wave infrared (LWIR) superlattice light emitting diode (SLED) arrays for infrared scene projector applications. While SLED technologies have shown great promise for scene projectors, their full potential has yet to be realized due to both electrical and optical inef ...

Packaging High Power Photodetectors for 100 MHz to 100 GHz RF Photonic Applications
SBC: PHASE SENSITIVE INNOVATIONS INC Topic: AF131142ABSTRACT:In this phase II effort we will commercialize the high speed, high power, modified uni-traveling carrier (MUTC) photodiodes (PDs). To this end, we will develop reliable packaging solutions for discrete PDs, PD arrays, balanced PDs and waveguide based PDs. We will also transition the chip fabrication process for continuous, high volume supply of quality MUTC PD chips. In the first six mont ...

Instant k-Space Tomography for Spatial-Spectral Monitoring
SBC: PHASE SENSITIVE INNOVATIONS INC Topic: AF17AT013The Army is frequently forced to operate in hostile climates. Heavy fog, rain, snow, and dust storms can inhibit the performance of tracking technologies such as mid-wave infrared cameras. In such conditions, Army early warning systems are blinded and put personnel and assets at risk.There is a specific need for a degraded visual environment (DVE) penetrative target tracking solution.Radio frequen ...

6000297
SBC: Chip Design Systems Inc. Topic: AF18AT017We propose to develop an innovative concept of the high speed dynamic IRSP that combines components and devices from proven suppliers with novel system-level research topics from CDS and University of Delaware. Having previously built and delivered working LED IRSPs to users gives CDS a unique advantage. In line with system theme of the solicitation, our phase 1 research topics are focused on syst ...

Optimizing InAs/InAsSb transport using predictive electronic structure code for carrier dynamics including Auger recombination
SBC: QUANTCAD LLC Topic: AF17CT04A model will be developed and validated for electronic transport calculations using a highly accurate, predictive electronic structure code that currently produces electronic structure, optical absorption, radiative and Auger recombination rates for InAs/InAsSb strained-layer superlattices from 5K-300K. The approach will use the novel formulation of Auger recombination pioneered at U. Iowa which d ...
