Low Expansion Metallic Nanolaminate Replicated Mirrors with CTE Matched High Conductivity Graphite Fiber Reinforced Magnesium Mirror Substrate Structu
SBC: METAL MATRIX CAST COMPOSITES, LLC (DBA M Topic: MDA04T005Magnetron sputtering of "Invar-like" nanolaminates onto a pre-finished/figured mandrel is proposed to produce strong, stiff, damage tolerant, low CTE replicas. The structural substrate will be a high performance discontinuous graphite fiber reinforced Mg AZ31 metal matrix composite manufactured by pressure infiltration casting. MetGraf Mg composites have the following attractive attributes for s ...

Advanced Chemical Iodine Lasers
SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC. Topic: MDA04073Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI) proposes to demonstrate the generation of singlet oxygen, O_2(a^1 delta), by a novel high-power, high-throughput, microwave induced plasma jet, as a potential source for an electrically pumped, recyclable chemical oxygen-iodine laser (COIL) system. The discharge concept employs a low-pressure, non-equilibrium adaptation of a method previously developed for atmospheric ...

Development of novel high bandwidth beam steering mirrors
SBC: SSG, Inc. Topic: MDA04075Airborne HEL applications require very stable optical line of sight jitter control. Recent requirements specify a broad range of control bandwidths from 100's hertz to a few kilohertz with corresponding LOS correction of a few milli-radians to 10's of micro-radians. These requirements are beyond current FSM technologies in a single FSM device, rather, up to three separate FSM systems tailored to ...

High Efficiency Space Qualified Dye Sensitized Solar Cells
SBC: EIC LABORATORIES, INC. Topic: MDA04087In this program, EIC proposes to develop ultralight space qualified "dye sensitized" solar cells (DSSCs) that will have even higher specific power as well as potentially being much less expensive to manufacture than the inorganic thin film alternatives. The cells will have a novel design and will contain new materials enabling: 1) solid state, nonvolatile construction, 2) radiation stable componen ...

High toughness reaction bonded composites
SBC: M CUBED TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Topic: MDA04041M Cubed manufactures many commercial components out of reaction bonded SiC and B4C on a large scale. The key advantages of these materials are high specific stiffness (high modulus and low density) and high thermal stability (high thermal conductivity and low CTE). However, these materials have limited toughness precluding their use in many potential applications including some missile defense com ...

A MEMS Gyro-Rebalanced Accelerometer for High Performance
SBC: Milli Sensor Systems and Actuators, Inc. Topic: MDA04018MEMS accelerometers typically use force/torque rebalance applied by subcomponent actuators which, although well-understood, are seriously limited in performance by fundamental material stability issues. These deficiencies can be overcome by the introduction of "gyro-rebalance", which substitutes inertial force balancing (the use of gyro torque to counterbalance pendulum torque) for the actuators. ...

Rapid Fabrication of Mirrors
SBC: Schafer Corporation Topic: MDA04067MDA and the Air Force are interested in low cost, rapidly fabricated, stiff, lightweight mirror technologies for meter-class optics. Schafer and teammate SRS Technologies propose to directly produce large diameter replicated mirrors using liquid phase processing to generate a 0 CTE glass foam support structure to support a polymer membrane (CP1T-DE) close-out (mirror surface) material. Schafer L ...

Lightweight Modular Precision Gimbal Systems
SBC: SSG, Inc. Topic: MDA04072Beam steering and LOS correction elements for future airborne threat detection and counter-weapon applications require performance capabilities that exceed those available from commercial gimbals. Architectures seek lightweight, modular, precision gimbal systems that can handle the inherent nonlinearity of airborne disturbance environment; possess high specific stiffness of the gimbal structure ...

Rapid Stressed Mirror Polishing of Silicon Carbide Aspheric Mirrors
SBC: SSG, Inc. Topic: MDA04067Aspheric mirror fabrication requires a series of sophisticated, time consuming manufacturing processes. Programs like Airborne Laser (ABL) which require relatively large aspheric mirrors which are aggressively lightweighted add further complexity to the manufacturing process, in this way, further extending the timescale required for mirror manufacturing. Stressed Mirror Polishing (SMP) has been ...

Development of novel high bandwidth beam steering mirrors
SBC: Xinetics, Inc. Topic: MDA04069A High Energy steering mirror capable of kilohertz response and submicroradian accuracy in a power efficient design using the combination of ultralightweight silicon carbide with compact XiWave actuators is proposed. Past designs of High-Energy Uncooled Fast steering mirrors trace their legacy to single crystal silicon VLA coated turning flats and voice coil actuators. Xinetics proposes an improve ...
