Fast Self-Adaptive Algorithms for Generating Hardbody Thermal Histories
SBC: STELLAR SCIENCE LTD. CO. Topic: MDA10T003To reduce the cost of new hardware development, the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) is developing fast new computational tools that enable in-the-loop hardware testing. The MDA and contractors have developed high-fidelity scene modeling tools such as the Fast Line-of-sight Imagery for Target and Exhaust-plume Signatures (FLITES) to test optical signature trackers. Currently, these high-speed tools ar ...

The Use of Hydrogen for Defect Reduction in Large Format Infrared Detector Materials
SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC Topic: MDA11T002Active defects negatively impact the performance of IRFPAs by increasing noise at various levels up to, and including, catastrophic degradation. Evidence indicates that"killer defects"are related to the interaction of open core screw dislocations with impurities that remain after substrate preparation, prior to HgCdTe growth. This impurity diffusion creates a conducting channel that shorts the j ...

High Operability HgCdTe Focal Plane Arrays on Si by Mitigation of Defects
SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC Topic: MDA11T002For HgCdTe infrared focal plane arrays fabricated on Si substrates, a model has recently been proposed to account for the disparity between the density of failed pixels and the density of dislocations that are present in the HgCdTe junction region. The model distinguishes between active and inactive dislocations and offers a hypothesis that dislocations are active only when they intersect particul ...

Defect Reduction at the Silicon (112) Wafer Surface by Amorphization and Recrystallization
SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC Topic: MDA11T002Silicon wafers oriented on (112) are the preferred substrates for deposition of mercury cadmium telluride layers by molecular beam epitaxy. Surface defects introduced during polishing of the wafers degrade the quality of the epitaxy and the performance of infrared detectors fabricated within these materials. We propose a process for reducing the density of the defects that are inherent in the si ...

Acquisition Tracking and Pointing Technologies
SBC: A-TECH CORPORATION Topic: MDA10005Applied Technology Associates (ATA) proposes the development of the stable platform for a new Optical Inertial Reference Unit (OIRU) titled the Space Qualified MSTAR Inertial Reference Unit (MIRU-SQ). The components and functions of an OIRU can be easily split between the stable platform and electronics subsystem. Because of the expensive nature of space qualified design, purchasing, and testing ...
