Silicon Receiver for Millimeter Wave Distributed Aperture Imager with Optical Upconversion
SBC: PHASE SENSITIVE INNOVATIONS INC Topic: SB113003In this Phase II SBIR effort we will dramatically reduce the size, weight, and power requirements of a passive millimeter wave imaging system based on optical upconversion. To this end, we will integrate custom silicon-germanium low noise amplifiers that have been designed to efficiently couple with our high performance lithium niobate upconversion modules. In Phase I we analyzed the design requ ...

Enhanced Light Absorption in thin InGaN Layers for Radiation Hard Solar Cells Using Nano-Patterned Metallic Films
SBC: RoseStreet Laboratories Topic: SB092017We propose to develop and deliver a nano-patterned metallic light trap platform that will allow ultra-thin InGaN photovoltaics to exhibit extended lifetime by a factor of four when used in low orbit satellite operations. We will test the enhancement of light absorption in InGaN layers with In fraction of 25% for use as an effective method of realizing radiation ultra-hard solar cells for space-ba ...

Upconverting Films
SBC: MESOLIGHT, LLC Topic: SB072034The rapid proliferation of infrared lasers in armed services generates an immediate need for new infrared detectors with high sensitivity, selectivity, resolution, and low production cost. Currently used semiconductor-based infrared detectors have low quantum efficiency, high dark counts, and need cryogenic cooling. An alternative approach is to upconvert infrared lights into visible lights tha ...

A Handheld Sensor for Amorphous Coating Integrity Evaluation
SBC: ALPHASENSE, INC. Topic: SB093002Under the DARPA sponsored Naval Advanced Amorphous Coating (NAAC) program, a novel, thermal sprayed amorphous metal coating has been developed. Such a coating has demonstrated superior mechanical and corrosion resistance properties. Although the coating is designed to be life-of-ship, the application and operational conditions may compromise the integrity of the coating. For example, the applicati ...
