David Doty, Principal Investigator Mr. George Entzminger, Business Official DOE Grant No. DE-FG02-98ER82565 Amount: $75,000 High sensitivity detectors (of infrared and x-ray radiation and magnetic fields) require miniature, fieldable cry ...

Chemical/Biological (CB) protective ensembles impose a thermal burden on aircrew, which not only limits mission time but poses a physiological danger to aircrew in even moderate operating environments. The thermal loads placed on these personnel may be reduced through the use of microclimate cooling systems. Unfortunately, to provide effective cooling, such systems must usually make compromises ...

The United State Department of Agricultural (USDA) and the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Services (APHIS) in conjunction with other Federal and State Organizations, have conducted a number of integrated pest management programs to eradicate various types of household pest including Red Imported Fire Ants (RIFA). Recent programs have involved application of products such as Malathion to effect ...

The AcclimatronTM plant propagation technology patented by Clemson University minimizes the shock of transfer of plant tissue cultures from heterotrophic growth in the laboratory to photoautotrophic growth in natural sunlight. Southern Son Propagation Systems, Inc. (SoSun) has acquired exclusive license from Clemson University to manufacture AcclimatronTM Systems and to market them by specific pla ...

Solar fuels generators harness solar energy as the power source to facilitate the generation of either hydrogen or carbon based fuels. In both cases, water is electrochemically oxidized to produce oxygen, protons and electrons at the anode. Hydrogen or carbon based fuels are produced simultaneously at the cathode by the reduction of protons or carbon dioxide, respectively. Ion exchange membranes a ...

Plastic scintillators are relatively easy to manufacture and cheaper compared to their inorganic counterparts. The main drawbacks of plastic scintillators are low light output and low resolution which limits their applications. To develop a new, higher performance family of plastic scintillators and fibers, it is essential to use advances in polymer science and a fundamental understanding of molec ...
