Recovery Act- Scale-up of the Nanomanufacturing of Coated Powders for Superior Battery Electrode Materials
SBC: ALD NANOSOLUTIONS, INC Topic: 09bThere is significant opportunity for energy efficiency improvements in the industrial and manufacturing sectors in the U.S., both from the production and consumption perspective. Higher energy density battery materials will play a role in both, through improved storage of electricity from renewable sources, the enabling of electric vehicles, and through the development of longer lasting, higher po ...

Ultra Low-Power and Embeddable Blade-Condition Monitor
SBC: Extreme Diagnostics, Inc. Topic: 07cThis SBIR/STTR project delivers an ultra-low power structural health monitoring (SHM) system that uses autonomous, wirelessly embedded sensors to monitor and assess structural integrity in wind turbine blades. EASE features impedance-based active SHM, which is highly sensitive to damage like cracks, delimitations, mass variations, fastener failures and stiffness changes. Blades are the only wind t ...

Nickel-Based Amorphous Metal Membranes for Water Gas Shift Reactors
SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP Topic: 10cHydrogen produced today from coal, natural gas, or biomass must be separated and purified outside the reactors using pressure swing absorption (PSA), a process that requires significant additional space and energy. Placing hydrogen-permeable membranes inside the reactors themselves would allow hydrogen to diffuse out, thereby reducing the cost of hydrogen production. In this Phase I effort, Mainst ...

Low Cost, Scalable Manufacturing of Microlens Engineered Substrates (MLES) for Enhanced Light Extraction in OLED Devices
SBC: Sinmat Inc Topic: 09bSolid state lighting is being promoted as the ultimate lamps of future. Though the internal quantum efficiency of OLED devices is almost 100%, external efficiency is a mere 36% mainly because of poor light out-coupling (~40%) from the device. Improvement in light out-coupling to >70% and further reducing the manufacturing cost will rapidly accelerate the commercialization of the OLED technology. T ...

Defect Free, Ultra-Rapid Thinning/Polishing of Diamond Crystal Radiator Targets (20??m) for Highly Linearly Polarized Photon Beams
SBC: Sinmat Inc Topic: 46eThe fabrication of high-quality ultra thin (~20 micron) diamond crystals targets for 9 GeV highly polarized photon beams is an outstanding challenge. Current state of the art polishing/thinning techniques are not successful in thinning single crystal diamond to such dimension because of its extreme hardness and chemical inertness. These techniques create significant stresses surface and sub-surfac ...

High Surface Area-to-Volume Ultrathin Dense Membrane for Hydrogen Separation
SBC: T3 SCIENTIFIC LLC Topic: 10cProviding a reliable, clean and economical energy source is a priority of the US government. The challenge is to use coal, a secured and economical energy source, to produce clean hydrogen fuel to support domestic and global green economy with near-zero emission. Conventional separation technology and even developmental technology do not satisfy all of the requirements for hydrogen production from ...

Innovative Processing Methods for Superconducting Materials
SBC: Alabama Cryogenic Engineering, Inc. Topic: N/APrecursor materials for superconductors such as Nb3Sn and Nb3Al include low melting point components. Therefore, conventional extrusion processes with large area reductions are not possible because adiabatic heating raises the temperature above the melting point. In certain circumstances, hydrostatic extrusion could be used, as it can be operated at low enough speeds to allow the deformation hea ...

Cavity Enhanced Thomson Scattering System for Low Temperature Plasmas
SBC: Seaforth LLC Topic: 30aElectrons play a very key role in plasma chemistry and dynamics of low temperature plasmas. Improved capability for measuring electron number density, ne, and electron energy distribution function, EEDF, in weakly ionized low temperature plasmas would benefit both fundamental study and application areas. For example, the capability would directly benefit emerging research targeted at modifying and ...

Novel Module Architecture Development for Increased Reliability and Reduced Costs
SBC: Creative Light Source, Inc Topic: 07aStatement of Problem: The US DOE has set a goal to advance photovoltaics (PV) technology to reach installed costs of less than $1/Watt. This requires module costs below $0.50/ Watt. Thin film PV provides the lowest documented production cost per watt ($0.67) of any PV technology. Module reliability has a direct impact on the levalized cost of energy (LCOE), or the cost of the energy produced by ...
