Insensitive Munition using Thermal Energy Harvesting
SBC: Mide Technology Corporation Topic: MDA08044Midé proposes to develop an innovative approach to harvest energy from thermal excursions and use the harvested energy selectively to prevent the explosion of solid rocket motor during slow and fast cook-off vents. The thermal energy harvester is a Shape Memory Alloy device that responds slowly during temperature increases. The energy harvested is used to power a monitoring circuitry. The circu ...

Smaller RF-Photonic Circuits and Interconnections for Radar Applications
SBC: Photonic Systems, Inc. Topic: MDA07038In Phase I of this program, Photonic Systems, Inc. began development of a novel broad-bandwidth modulator that has the potential to reduce analog photonic link hardware size by a factor of 75 and the required dc power by a factor of 50. The novel modulator will also permit more environmentally robust packaging than has been possible with conventional electro-optic modulators to date. Finally, th ...
