Open Call for Science and Technology Created by Early-Stage (e.g. University) Teams
SBC: 4TH PHASE TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: AF19BT001Durable and robust large-area ultrathin CNT sheets can be produced from pristine CNT sheets following proprietary CNT purification and densification processes. The resulting CNT sheets are free-standing, flexible, durable, robust, ultrathin (< 5 µm) and lightweight (~6 g per m2). They withstand corrosion and heat and are superior at shielding EMI (effectiveness >= 55 dB in the X band).

Open Call for Science and Technology Created by Early-Stage (e.g. University) Teams
SBC: ECSQUARED INC. Topic: AF19BT001Petal is a novel bio-solar proposal to generate power using plant photosynthetic proteins combined to nanotubes bonded to a conductive substrate. The use of this architecture should allow for high efficiencies in the capture and harvest of photons and the generation of solar power in a very flexible format. This format will allow for scaling from micro to industrial scales.

Advanced back-illuminated CMOS image sensors for adaptive optics applications
SBC: SCIMEASURE ANALYTICAL SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: AF171022An existing 128x128 pixel CMOS image sensor design will be revised and fabricated in a thicker format more suitable for backthinning with the goal of increasing the quantum efficiency from 59% to > 80% at 589 nm. Increasing the epitaxial layer material from 5.2 microns to 14.2 microns is estimated to increase the absorption of 589 nm photons by 48%. A batch of 20 devices will be fully backthinned ...

Next Generation Infrared Scene Projector for Testing MWIR Systems
SBC: Chip Design Systems Inc. Topic: AF18AT017Based on the results of Phase I, we aim to develop a prototype of the high speed dynamic IRSP instrument. This prototype will incorporate the next generation 1Kx1K IRLED array that is compatible with the highly successful and user-tested NSLEDS IRSP. If Phase II of the proposed project is successful, the result will be an upgrade of NSLEDS IRSP system to higher performance and operability. The rea ...
