High Sensitive Methane Sensor for Real-time Measurements of Methane Isotopes
SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC Topic: 19aDetermination of isotopologue ratios are a critical tool in plant, microbial and ecosystem ecology, hydrology, biogeochemistry studies, and interrogation of environmental remediation. In addition, the most abundant elements utilized and exchanged by plants, microbes and ecosystems are carbon (C), hydrogen (H), oxygen (O) and nitrogen (N), all of which have naturally occurring stable isotope forms ...

Resonant Cavity Light Emitting Diodes for Infrared Gas Spectroscopy
SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC Topic: 19aThe predictive skill of reactive transport models of hydrobiogeochemical processes currently being used to simulate the coupled interactions of complex subsurface systems (soils, rhizosphere, sediments, aquifers, the vadose zone and groundwaters) is limited by the accuracy of the model parameters that represent subsurface system structure and intrinsic properties. Robust field testing to validate ...

Layer-by-layer Deposition of Ultra-thin Hybrid/ microporous Membrane for CO2 Separation
SBC: Angstrom Thin FIlm Technologies LLC Topic: 15aCO2 separation and capture is a global topic that is closely related to energy and environment. Separation via membrane techniques is energy-efficient compared to other separation techniques. Among various membranes, porous membranes usually have good performance in gas flux but poor performance in selectivity. The flux of a porous membrane is dependent on the membrane thickness; the selectivity o ...

Non-Invasive Spin Polarization Monitoring
SBC: BROCK ROBERTS Topic: 25eHigh quality spin polarization is an expectation for many users of Nuclear physics facilities. Accelerator operators and designers currently do not have real time, non-invasive polarization monitors, and no direct way to automate polarization quality optimization. The Thomas Jefferson National Laboratory (JLAB), Cornell’s Laboratory of Elementary-Particle Physics (LEPP) and, Electrodynamic, have ...

Development of a Sequence Capture Approach for Monitoring in situ Nitrogen Cycling Potential in Microbial Communities
SBC: Glomics, Inc Topic: 19bMicroorganisms play key roles in environmental functioning and understanding their responses to environmental perturbation is critical in developing accurate climate change models, a need highlighted by the DOE. However, their phylogenetic and functional diversity, abundance in the environment, and lack of cultured status make them challenging to study. While there are several molecular methods av ...

Novel Process for Low-cost Large-area GaN Templates on Metal Foils
SBC: IBEAM MATERIALS, INC. Topic: 15bWide band gap devices are considered a key future electronics technology in a number of applications especially for high-power electronics. These devices are based on high-quality epitaxial films of wide band gap materials such as GaN deposited on single-crystal wafers. The single-crystal substrates are limiting because of the wafer size, expense, mechanical properties and availability. Providing ...

Portable, low power soil gas analyzer
SBC: MESA PHOTONICS LLC Topic: 19aThere is a need for soil gas analyzers to characterize subsurface biogeochemical processes by measuring simultaneously multiple gases that are signatures for specific processes. Instruments should be significantly more portable and require less power than what is currently available. The analyzers need to be suitable for field work and laboratory studies. Rugged, compact, low power, and reasonably ...

Optical imaging system for in situ characterization of mixed phase clouds
SBC: MESA PHOTONICS LLC Topic: 20aClouds play leading role in the Earth's global energy and solar radiation balance. Improving cloud models requires information on the cloud microphysical properties, such as particle size distribution and concentration, cloud composition (droplets, ice particles) and also information on ice crystal shapes (habits). New lightweight and low power instruments for characterization of mixed-phase cloud ...
