Large-Area, High-Uniformity Photodiodes for Infrared Trap Detectors
SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC Topic: 9020168Rmethyst Research Inc. will design, fabricate and test a high uniformity, large area, low noise infrared trap-detector detector for the 1- 4.5 μm wavelength range. This state of the art detector will have a large area (e.g., 1-1.8 cm diameter active area) with a spatial variability of internal quantum efficiency of less than 0.1 % between 1 μm and 4.5 μm. In addition, the internal quantum effici ...

Advanced Electroanalytical Methods for Failure Mode Analysis and Screening of Base Metal Capacitors
SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP Topic: MDA14T003Over 95% of the multilayer ceramic capacitors manufactured worldwide use base metal electrode (BME) technology and they are one of the key components in much of the modern electronics. BME capacitors have, over the last 20 years, made significant improvements in performance and reliability; making them more competitive for a wide range of applications. However, there remains significant concerns ...

Weapon Inspection Sustainment and Recording Device (WISARD)
SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP Topic: MDA14T001The process by which weapon systems go from point of manufacture to field usage is not a simple one. Devices can be held in storage for decades before use, and they can be subjected to significant and potentially damaging environmental conditions throughout the systems lifecycle. Latent and intermittent failures occur, and it is difficult to detect these malfunctions without actively monitoring ...

BMDS Aggregate Semantic Store (BASS)
SBC: MODUS OPERANDI, INC. Topic: MDA14010Legacy database systems often exhibit the feature of being stove piped and difficult to integrate over time. This is because they were often developed for ad hoc purposes for specific groups, thus their data models and inherent structure is not always well understood except by a select few people who designed and built the database. This means data retrieval using these legacy systems is a chall ...

Development and Packaging of Radiation Immune Nano-Diamond Integrated Circuits for Advanced Interceptor Avionics
SBC: AET, Inc. Topic: MDA09006The goal of this program is to develop nanosacle electronics and packaging technology that is hardened to space and nuclear radiation. Vanderbilt will assist AET in the development of packaging technologies for lateral emission-based diamond devices characterized for temperature insensitivity and radiation hardness. A laterally configured diamond emission device can offer significant advantages ...

Advancements in Thermal Battery Pellet Manufacture
SBC: ENSER Corporation, The Topic: MDA09010Thermal batteries are a mission-critical component utilized in virtually every weapon system. All thermal batteries require four types of pellets that comprise the cell stack(s), i.e., the energy-producing portion of the battery. Pellet size (diameter and thickness) and the number of pellets required vary by battery type and application. Pellets are manufactured by compaction of their powdered co ...

Automated Thermal Battery Assembly
SBC: ENSER Corporation, The Topic: MDA09010Although there are numerous types of primary and secondary batteries which now fulfill a variety of roles within the Department of Defense (DOD), primary thermal batteries are arguably among the most important in terms of their impact across all service branches, to include the Missile Defense Agency. Along with increased performance capabilities and packaging flexibility, thermal battery manufac ...

Contamination-free, Ultra-rapid Reactive Chemical Mechanical Polishing (RCMP) of GaN substrates
SBC: Sinmat Inc Topic: MDA09T001Gallium Nitride (GaN) substrates are ideal materials for fabrication of high-power and high-frequency devices based on III-V materials. The current state-of-the-art Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP) methods are plagued by several challenges, including, surface charge affects due to surface contamination, and sub-surface damages, which can limit the quality of III-V devices. Furthermore, there is ...

Novel Reactive Chemical Mechanical Polishing (RCMP) Technology for fabrication of Large, Non-flat SiC mirrors
SBC: Sinmat Inc Topic: MDA09024Silicon Carbide (SiC) due to its superior thermal and mechanical properties serves as an attractive candidate as mirror material. The manufacturing of such mirrors is a critical challenge because of the hardness and chemical inertness of the material. The current state-of-the-art polishing methods are either typically very slow or introduce a high density of defects, scratches, or large stresses. ...

Decision Support Tools for Sustainable Manufacturing
SBC: BIMCON Inc. Topic: N/AThe objective of this proposal is to establish the feasibility of developing an integrated decision support tool that transforms the current time-consuming and reactive (post-design) sustainability assessment into a real-time, proactive approach available in the early phases of product design. This tool, called Sustainability Integrated into Early Design (SIED), will define and capture lifecycle-w ...
