"LAPPD Commercialization Fully Integrated Sealed Detector Devices
SBC: INCOM, INC. Topic: 38aThe high energy physics (HEP) community, the scientific and medical communities and the public at large, require the availability of high sensitivity photo- sensors with improved spatial and temporal resolution that can be scaled to large areas, and manufactured in a robust, durable, and compact package at a low cost. Phase I successfully demonstrated the underlying enabling scientific and techni ...

"Wide-Area and Local-Area Water Characterization in Underlying Soil Using Cost-Effective, Directional Detectors and Novel Moderation Designs"
SBC: Silverside Detectors Inc. Topic: 84The Cosmic-ray Neutron Sensing (CRNS) method can measure the water content of soil with 2% accuracy (under optimal conditions) for agriculture-sized (ie., hectometers) scale. The method uses a neutron detector situated above ground in the center of the measurement area, monitoring in real-time the emission of cosmic-ray produced neutrons from the soil. The simple, non-invasive measurement can prov ...

100-W Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL) Bars and 1-kW QCL Stacks
SBC: TeraDiode, Inc. Topic: N142093There is a compelling need for compact high brightness mid-wavelength infrared (MWIR) lasers. Applications of such sources include spectroscopic detection of the fingerprint of molecular absorptions, illumination, electronic warfare (EW), and infrared countermeasure (IRCM) systems in response to increasingly sophisticated seeker technologies and increased threat ranges. Todays state-of-the-art hig ...

12-bit 32 Channel 500MSps Low Latency ADC
SBC: Pacific Microchip Corporation Topic: 25gParticle accelerators need precise, real-time control of the particle beams used to create the conditions required for Nuclear Physics (NP) experiments. The digital feedback of these control systems requires low latency ADCs with high linearity and dynamic range. High performance multichannel digitizers dissipate excessive heat. Therefore, low power dissipation is another critical requirement for ...

2.5-Ton Foldable Litter
SBC: Physical Sciences Inc. Topic: N142089PSI and ABS are teaming together again to apply their lightweight deployable litter technology to the challenge of high-g loading of the transported Marine. The PSI and ABS Principal Investigators have already collaborated on the successful development of a collapsible/deployable litter that is half as heavy as the current state of the art and folds into half the volume. In addition to meeting the ...

20 W High Efficiency 1550 nm Pulsed Fiber Laser
SBC: POLARONYX, INC. Topic: H902High peak power short pulsed lasers have been considered to be an enabling technology to build high power transmitters for future deep space high rate space communications. However, to achieve a high peak power at a high repetition rate over 100 MHz and with a short pulse width and >25% wall plug efficiency still remains an issue unsolved. PolarOnyx proposes a novel approach targeting to make 10 M ...

3100F T-EBC Stable Coatings for SiC CMCs
SBC: TECHNOLOGY ASSESSMENT AND TRANSFER, INC. Topic: 18aDeveloping a T-EBC coating capable of providing extended performance of sic CMCs in high temperature, water vapor gas turbine engine environments at 3100oF coupled with the need to resist degradation from external sand/ salt ingestion is a daunting challenge. Of all the numerous studies by NASA, universities, private sector companies and other Federal laboratories, rare earth zirconia and hafnia c ...

360 degree field of view information in a 120 degree immersive virtual reality (VR) display
SBC: SA Photonics, Inc. Topic: A17135Army aviators are flying helicopters in highly dynamic and dangerous scenarios. In urban warfare, this can mean avoiding obstacles and external threats. On platforms like the US Army CH-47 Chinook, the pilot has guidance from a flight engineer or crew chief who can look down through a hatch in the floor. Other Army helicopters do not have that luxury. Regardless, there are numerous blind spots rem ...
