OUSD (R&E) CRITICAL TECHNOLOGY AREA(S): Microelectronics; Quantum Science OBJECTIVE: An application-specific electronics package that enables low-noise miniaturization of quantum systems. DESCRIPTION: Quantum systems rely on electronics for control and signal input/output to larger systems. Often, these originate with large scale lab electronics, then are scaled down to field programmable gate ...

OUSD (R&E) CRITICAL TECHNOLOGY AREA(S): Quantum Science OBJECTIVE: Develop an application-specific photonic integrated circuit to serve a specific quantum system (e.g. Rydberg sensor, clock transition). The device should integrate into and be demonstrated with an already existing quantum sensor. DESCRIPTION: Quantum sensors have demonstrated the ability to surpass classical sensors in areas such ...

OUSD (R&E) CRITICAL TECHNOLOGY AREA(S): Integrated Network Systems-of-Systems OBJECTIVE: DTRA seeks the development of a compact, ruggedized, all-in-one network routing solution for tactical use of the CBRN Plug-In within a local Android Team Awareness Kit (ATAK) Server that is compatible with the existing MANET radios currently employed by OI-CO and SOCOM. For DTRA, this will enable Technical Su ...

OUSD (R&E) CRITICAL TECHNOLOGY AREA(S): Sustainment OBJECTIVE: Develop automated fiber-optic termini inspection and cleaning equipment for use on military aircraft. DESCRIPTION: Currently automated technology exists to inspect and clean termini in military-grade connectors not installed on the aircraft. Military aircraft require that the fiber optic connectors on Weapons Replaceable Assemblies ( ...
