To achieve a quantum step in data center efficiency, new thermal management technologies must be coupled to the devices they cool. This proposal seeks to build on recent observations that microconvective cooling not only functions as a high-performance chip cooling technique with the potential for a low PUE, but is also capable of increasing the intrinsic efficiency of the silicon processors them ...

This proposal seeks the development of analog AI training processors with more than 240× performance to push the boundaries of AI without spending billions of dollars to train each new advanced model, or worse, burning down the entire planet. The building blocks of these architectures will be the novel class of nanoprotonic devices with ideal characteristics we will develop here, such that the re ...

The Navy requires a low-cost, industrial microwave system for curing aerospace composite materials. In this Phase I STTR proposal, Physical Sciences Inc outlines the development of a microwave applicator that uses low-cost RF sources and can be installed in heritage autoclaves for curing large aerospace composite parts. This technology has the potential to improve cured mechanical properties, and ...

Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI), in collaboration with Stanford University, will develop an electromagnetic simulation package used for the development and optimization of large-scale meta-optics, and demonstrate the functionality of the package in the long-wave infrared (LWIR). Our team will combine recent progress in physics-augmented deep learning neural networks with rigorous far-field diffractio ...

Physical Sciences Inc. partnered with Alfred University will develop an F/1, 90 degree full field of view MWIR/SWIR gradient index (GRIN) compound lens for reduced size and lens integration cost. The element-by-element achromatization and athermalization of GRIN provide useful performance improvements to GRIN systems. Element count is reduced (= 2), diversity of optical material needed is fixed, a ...
