1meV Electron Monochromator
SBC: ELECTRON OPTICA INC Topic: C5313aC53-13a-271127Electron microscopes have been widely used by material scientists, biologists, and industrial scientists to study the composition and chemical structure of materials with high spatial resolution. Aberration-corrected instruments can image individual defects and interfaces at atomic resolution, and continued advances in electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) have made elemental anal ...

Optimizing Solid Electrolyte and Air Electrodes for High Energy, 3D Na-Air Battery
SBC: DAYLYTE, INC. Topic: C5318cC53-18c-271136The lack of affordable large-scale batteries makes electric vehicles too expensive for most consumers and makes renewable energy storage financially impractical for almost everyone. Although Li-ion battery prices have fallen over the past three decades, they are threatening to rise higher as Li-ion production for electric vehicles is predicted to consume the world’s high-grade coba ...

Development of Novel Ligands used in Sludge Washing for Produced Water Value Extraction
SBC: GLYCOSURF, INC. Topic: C5321bC53-21b-271141Unconventional REE sources, such as mine tailings, produced water, geothermal brines, and coal byproducts are abundant in the US, and each offers a potential means to diversify the critical materials supply chain. Unlike the concentrations of REEs in natural water sources, reported to be between 15 – 710 ng/L, the concentrations of REEs in the aforementioned unconventional sources ...

Cryo-EM Grid Screening Tool
SBC: Gregory Hirsch Topic: C5327aC53-27a-271143Transformative advances in cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) have expanded our ability to visualize cellular and biomolecular structure, often at atomic resolution. However, a significant hurdle for achieving the full potential of cryo-EM, including work performed at facilities associated with DOE, involves difficulties with sample preparation. Reliably producing vitrified ultr ...

Functional Gradient-Based Geometric Curve Synthesis for Dynamic Quantum Error Suppression
SBC: ERROR CORP. Topic: C5306aC53-06a-271155Harnessing the quantum state of nature holds tremendous potential for creating new quantum technologies that surpass the capabilities of current systems. To create these new technologies, precise control over the quantum state must be maintained while simultaneously suppressing noise processes that would otherwise lead to decoherence and inaccurate results. This project will address ...

Electrodeposited Overlays for Improved Durability of Nuclear Reactors
SBC: Faraday Technology, Inc. Topic: C4720aC47-20a-271162Next generation molten salt reactor systems require the development of scalable processes to apply bimetallic structures of corrosion-resistant materials onto boiler and pressure vessels. This will improve the corrosion resistance, reliability, and lifetime of components in liquid-fuel and liquid-cooled reactors. Molten salts enable economical operation due to higher temperatures (>6 ...

2a. Efficient Monte Carlo Simulations in the Cloud
SBC: RADIASOFT LLC Topic: C5302aC53-02a-271164Research and development advances in novel nuclear reactor design for power production depend on computer simulations to validate efficiency and safety. Most existing simulation co des require training and expertise and have restrictive licenses that make them hard to acquire and use. One promising open-source code is easy to use and can spread its calculations across many computers, ...

E4S: Extreme-Scale Scientific Software Stack for Commercial Clouds
SBC: PARATOOLS, INC Topic: C5302bC53-02b-271168The software used in High Performance Computing (HPC) and ArtificialIntelligence/MachineLearning (AI/ML) workloads is increasingly complex to maintain, install, and optimize. More problematic is the poor performance portability of applications between platforms, forcing site-specific re-engineering of codes. Existing solutions to deployment of AI/ML work?ows on commercial cloud envir ...

Engineered Enzymes for Polyurethane Recycling
SBC: Birch Biosciences, LLC Topic: C5331aC53-31a-271169Significant technical innovations are needed to improve the economics of plastic recycling. Plastic recycling rates in the United States have been stagnant for more than a decade: less than 10% of plastics are currently recycled, and only 5.5% of polyurethane plastics are recycled. Plastics have become a major contributor to global warming, as emissions from global plastics productio ...

Rapid and Tunable Cooling Technology for Vacuum Furnaces
SBC: ADVANCED COOLING TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: C4918aC49-18a-271181The need for high-temperature furnaces for neutron scattering experiments has been increasing considerably. One of the major limiting factors of these furnaces is the cooling rate. Currently, the vacuum furnace relies on radiation to dissipate heat and takes at least 2 hours to cool the furnace low enough to safely open for a sample change. This results in significant limitations of ...
