To further accelerate the commercialization process of our supercapactior yarns, we plan to further lower the production cost, enhance our yearn performance and optimize customer experience via materials and process engineering and innovative platform development. The major deliverable of this sequential Phase II project is to demonstrate the throughput capacity of a large area supercapactior fabr ...

Built upon the progress in Phase I period, Winchester Technologies, LLC is pleased to propose to investigate practical magnetoelectric antennas during the Phase II period based on solidly mounted resonators (SMR), which will have enormous impacts on DoD and civilian antenna applications. State of the art antennas suffer from three major open challenges: (1) large antenna size > ?0/10, (2) antenna ...

Recent advances in 3D structure printing and 3D direct printed electronics have widened the scope of possibilities for the Internet of Things (IoT). New near room temperature 3D direct ink writing (DIW) additive manufacturing (AM) printing processes allow many different type of sensors and they can be embedded anywhere in a structure, which offers several benefits. 1. Protection: sensors face degr ...

Physical Sciences, Inc. and Colorado State University will advance the technical maturity of the Compressive Sensing Hyperspectral Imager (CS-HSI) platform. The CS-HSI operates in the longwave infrared (LWIR) spectral range with a single-pixel architecture for low-cost, standoff wide area Early Warning of chemical vapor plumes. The motivation for applying CS to LWIR HSI is to eliminate the high-co ...

Current prosthetic feet produce much less peak mechanical power than the able-bodied foot/ankle and release only about half of the mechanical energy generated during gait. This leads to higher energy expenditure among amputees as compared to able-bodied i

InnoSys and Purdue University will continue to research and develop robust Phase I approaches for building, implementing and demonstrating a new class of terahertz (THz) vacuum electronic device (VED) power amplifiers and power sources at frequencies in the range of 0.3-3.0 THz (the THz regime) employing advanced micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) and vacuum technology and processes. There is ...

Currently large capacity cryostats, capable of hosting experiments for many qubits, require expensive and hard to obtain liquid cryogens. A few small cryo-free systems exist but they are non-ideal for this use. An opportunity exists for a large scale, c

This will facilitate the development of remedial approaches for existing facilities and assist in planning new facilities, logistics, and procedures to protect the environment without impairing critical mission functionality. The commercial application will include software distribution and updates.

We propose to design, analyze, implement, and evaluate a system that enables user-verifiable execution of code on untrusted computer systems in the presence of malware. Our system is based on a secure hypervisor that provides and enforces strong security
