Stable High Bandwidth AO Control with physical DM constraints
SBC: Guidestar Optical Systems, Inc. Topic: AF18AT008Adaptive optics (AO) can compensate for the aberrating effects of atmospheric turbulence which degrade the performance of high energy laser (HEL) weapon systems and, as such, is an enabling technology for effective deployment of HEL weapon systems. A key component in an HEL AO system is the deformable mirror (DM). However, mechanical constraints in currently available DMs limits AO system performa ...

Tunable Bioinspired Spatially Varying Random Photonic Crystals
SBC: Electro Magnetic Applications, Inc. Topic: AF19AT017Naturally occurring periodic nanostructures have long been of interest due to their striking optical effects and potential biological roles. They have been recognized not only as interesting curiosities but potential design inspirations that can lead to improvements in biochemical sensors, laser surgery, photovoltaics, and other mission-critical applications. This work will focus on one such appli ...

Conductive coatings eliminate static discharge risk on aircraft
SBC: H. F. WEBSTER ENGINEERING SERVICES, INC. Topic: AF19CT010Electrically insulating aircraft materials and coatings increase the likelihood of dangerous charge buildup due to static electricity accumulation and are also not able to protect from lightning strikes. Aircraft performance is critical for the proper support and maintenance of aircraft. We will eliminate the need for a separate coating, by producing an electrically conductive rain erosion resis ...

Fabricate novel anode based on Si alloy for Li-ion battery using cold spray technique
SBC: VRC Metal Systems, LLC Topic: AF19CT010A Si-based alloy anode for rechargeable Li-ion batteries will be created using “cold spray”, a solid-state materials deposition technique. In this process inert driver gas is used to accelerate powdered feedstock particles to supersonic speeds. No melting occurs, instead deposits form as a result of severe deformation. This allows deposition of Si, a material prone to oxidation otherwise. Init ...

CPS: Creative Problem Solver
SBC: SMART INFORMATION FLOW TECHNOLOGIES LLC Topic: N16AT002Military systems operate in complex, adversarial environments where their initial planned operations are often overcome by events, but soldiers use those systems in creative ways to achieve their mission objectives. For example, complex ground robotic systems that were initially deployed for surveillance and explosive ordinance disposal have instead been used as decoys, ammunition carriers, and ot ...

Simultaneous Multiple Object Detection System
SBC: Semquest, Inc. Topic: MDA16T006An advanced hit detection technology is needed for MDA that can report impacts at hyper-velocities and at multiple hit locations. We present a technology with a high level of performance that leverages decades of hit technology experience and utilizes existing technologies developed under previous efforts. Our technology offers a low latency non-interpolated direct indicator of multiple hit locati ...

Rydberg-atom RF Sensors for Direction Finding and Geolocation (RADARS)
SBC: COLDQUANTA, INC. Topic: AF17AT028ColdQuanta, in partnership with Dr. Zoya Popovic at the University of Colorado at Boulder, proposes to develop a three-dimensional quantum-enhanced radio-frequency (RF) signal sensor and direction finder. Our approach combines Rydberg-atom-based RF electrometry and discrete lens arrays (DLAs) of planar antennas. The DLA will serve as a Fourier optic for an incident wave, and a Rydberg-atom RF elec ...
