A Novel Noninvasive Microwave Sensor for Quantitative Assessment of Degree of Sensitization in Marine Aluminum Alloys
SBC: ALPHASENSE, INC. Topic: N09T022In phase I, we have proven the feasibility of using the microwave cavity perturbation technique to detect and quantify DoS in marine aluminum alloys. We implemented an alpha version sensor prototype, characterized and validated its performance using ASTM G67 method. We also identified methods to further enhance the sensor sensitivity, so that DoS in the low (a few mg/cm2) to moderate range can be ...

Efficient high power tunable THz source based on all fiber-based pulsed fiber lasers at ~ 2 mm"
SBC: N.P. PHOTONICS, INC. Topic: AF08T009In Phase I, NP Photonics has successfully demonstrated the feasibility of a fiber-based THz source that can generate high power, narrow linewidth, and tunable THz radiation by leveraging NP’s proprietary unique fibers, fiber lasers/amplifiers, and THz techniques. In Phase II, we will develop the monolithic high power ~ 2 micron pulsed fiber laser system for the proposed fiber-based THz source un ...

Updateable 3D Display Using Large Area Photorefractive Polymer Devices
SBC: TIPD LLC Topic: AF08T001Command and control battle maps and mission planning can be greatly enhanced by the representation of the battlefield in 3 dimensions. Showing perspective views, depth and occlusions allows for a better understanding of the situation, and assists in avoiding error when interpreting the terrain. Such maps already exist and are in use, but are based on permanent holographic media that cannot be refr ...

Optical Cooling of RF systems using an All Optical Fiber Approach
SBC: N.P. PHOTONICS, INC. Topic: N10AT017We propose an all-fiber approach to heat removal from devices such as high-power RF amplifiers. In our approach, the cooling fiber segment, the pump fiber laser, and the optical fiber used for photon waste removal are all integrated into a single fiber configuration. NP Photonics' high efficiency thulium-doped fiber lasers are used to pump high purity thulium-doped glass fibers, which provide the ...

A Plasma Process to Apply Refractory Metal Coatings to Continuous Lengths of Copper Alloy Rails
SBC: ATS-MER, LLC Topic: N10AT025High strength copper alloys are preferred as the base rails for railguns due to their combination of strength and electrical and thermal conductivity, but suffer damage due to high current densities, arcing, gouging, and exposure to molten aluminum armatures. A refractory metal/alloy coating on the copper base alloy is an attractive approach for increasing rail life if the refractory metal coating ...
