(PSI) PROPOSES TO DEVELOP A SILICON WHISKER AND CARBON NANOFIBER COMPOSITE ANODE FOR LITHIUM ION BATTERIES ON A PHASE I PROGRAM. THIS ANODE PROVIDES HIGH CAPACITY, HIGH POWER, AND IMPROVED CYCLE LIFE AT A COMPETITIVE COST. SILICON IS LOW COST AND HAS A THEORETICAL CAPACITY OF 4200 MAH/G BUT IT HAS A LIMITED CYCLE LIFE. THE NANOCOMPOSITE DESIGN PROVIDES A SYNERGISTIC IMPROVEMENT IN REVERSIBLE CAPACITY AND ELECTROCHEMICAL CYCLING AS A RESULT OF THE UNIQUE SILICON ARCHITECTURE AND STRUCTURAL REINFORCEMENT PROVIDED BY THE NANOFIBERS. IN THE PHASE I PROGRAM, PSI WILL DEMONSTRATE A TECHNOLOGY READINESS LEVEL OF 3 WITH AN ANODE CAPACITY OF GREATER THAN 1000 MAH/G FOR OVER 100 CYCLES (100% DEPTH-OF-DISCHARGE) USING 2 MAH CELLS. THESE PERFORMANCE GOALS WILL RESULT IN AN OVERALL BATTERY ENERGY DENSITY OF GREATER THAN 300 WH/KG. IN THE PHASE II PROGRAM, PSI WILL INCREASE CELL SIZE TO 2500 MAH AND OPTIMIZE CELL DESIGN TO FURTHER IMPROVE CYCLE LIFE. |

AND AMPAC IN-SPACE PROPULSION PROPOSE TO DEVELOP A UNIQUE CHEMICAL PROPULSION SYSTEM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION NASA SCIENCE SPACECRAFT AND MISSIONS THAT IS COMPACT, LIGHTWEIGHT, AND CAN OPERATE WITH HIGH RELIABILITY OVER EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME AND UNDER WIDE RANGE OF THERMAL ENVIRONMENTS. THE SYSTEM USES A STORABLE, LOW TOXICITY, MONOPROPELLANT AS ITS WORKING FLUID. UNDER THIS SBIR PROGRAM WE PROPOSE TO INVESTIGATE APPLICATIONS OF THIS MONOPROPELLANT TO THE DESIGN OF IN-SPACE PROPULSION SYSTEMS APPROPRIATE FOR NASA PLANETARY SPACECRAFT AND MISSIONS. IN PHASE I, WE PROPOSE TO EXPERIMENTALLY CHARACTERIZE THE PROPELLANT IGNITION AND COMBUSTION PROCESSES IN DETAIL AND USE THE DATA TO DEVELOP DESIGN CONCEPTS FOR A LIQUID MONOPROPELLANT THRUSTER. IN PHASE II, WE PROPOSE TO DEVELOP AND DELIVER A SMALL SCALE PROOF-OF-CONCEPT ENGINEERING PROTOTYPE THRUSTER. UPON SUCCESSFUL TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT UNDER THE SBIR PROGRAM, FULL-SCALE PROTOFLIGHT AND SPACE FLIGHT PROPULSION SYSTEMS APPLICABLE TO SPECIFIC MISSIONS WILL BE DEVELOPED IN PHASE III NASA PROGRAMS. |

| 140D6318C0013 | PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC. | Department of the Interior | $99.85K | 2017-11-29 | 2018-08-28 | 541715 | SWITCHABLE LWIR FILTER USING PHASE-CHANGE MATERIALS |
| NNX11CF17P | PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC. | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | $99.84K | 2011-02-18 | 2011-09-29 | 541712 | SPACE MISSIONS COULD BENEFIT FROM IMPROVED LUBRICANT TECHNOLOGY. PSI INTENDS TO DEVELOP NOVEL LIQUID LUBRICANT FORMULATIONS WHICH ARE APPLICABLE FOR FUTURE NASA MISSIONS. OUR CONCEPT IS BASED UPON USE OF NANOFLUID TECHNOLOGY WHEREBY STABLE, COLLOIDAL SUSPENSIONS OF ADDITIVES ARE PRESENT IN PERFLUOROPOLYALKYLETHER (PFPE) BASE FLUIDS. THE ADDITIVES WILL BECOME SHEARED WITHIN MINUTE SCRATCHES AND GROOVES WHILE SEPARATING SURFACE ASPERITIES. AT THE CONCLUSION OF PHASE I, WE WILL HAVE PREPARED ~ 10 NM DIAMETER ADDITIVES WITH ~ 115 M2/G AND ~ 80 M2/G GRAVIMETRIC SURFACE AREAS, RESPECTIVELY. THEIR SURFACE WILL HAVE BEEN CHEMICALLY MODIFIED AND SHOWN STABLE FROM -65OC TO +65OC. A 50% REDUCTION IN FRICTION AND WEAR AT STEEL SURFACES UPON DISPERSION OF THE ADDITIVE TO PFPE WILL HAVE BEEN DEMONSTRATED. PSI WILL HAVE SHOWN THAT THE VISCOSITY OF UNIFLOR 8960 PFPE IS MAINTAINED AT 60 CST 5% UPON FORMULATION WITH THE ADDITIVE. PSI WILL HAVE DEMONSTRATED THAT THE PARTICLES MAINTAIN AN AVERAGE PARTICLE SIZE OF ~ 10 NM WITHIN PFPE, AND WOULD HAVE SETTLING TIMES>5 YEARS. THE TRL AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PHASE I CONTRACT WILL BE AT 2, WHILE THE TRL AT THE COMPLETION OF THE PHASE I CONTRACT WILL BE AT 3-4. |
| NNX11CG55P | PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC. | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | $99.81K | 2011-02-18 | 2011-09-29 | 541712 | PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC. PROPOSES TO DEVELOP A COMPACT, MULTIWAVELENGTH LIDAR WITH POLARIZATION ANALYSIS CAPABILITY THAT WILL BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY VOLCANIC ASH CLOUDS AT DISTANCE. THE SYSTEM WILL BE DEVELOPED SPECIFICALLY FOR AIRBORNE DEPLOYMENT, INCLUDING ON UNMANNED AERIAL SYSTEMS. A UAS-EQUIPPED WITH SUCH A LIDAR COULD PROVIDE VALUABLE SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION TO THAT AVAILABLE FROM EXISTING AND PLANNED SATELLITE ASSETS FOR DEFINING AND TRACKING VOLCANIC ASH PLUMES. THE SYSTEM FOOTPRINT WILL BE MINIMIZED BY TAKING ADVANTAGE OF ALL SOLID-STATE LASER TRANSMITTERS SUCH AS EMERGING METAL DOPED FIBER AMPLIFIERS. THE PHASE I PROGRAM WILL DETERMINE THE MOST APPROPRIATE WAVELENGTHS FOR USE VIA SYSTEM MODELING AND THEN WILL SELECT LASER TRANSMITTER HARDWARE. ADDITIONAL MODELING WILL DETERMINE THE TRANSMIT PULSE ENERGY AND RECEIVE APERTURE SIZE. THE SYSTEM WILL BE DESIGNED TO BE EYESAFE. A COMPLETE CONCEPTUAL DESIGN FOR AN AIRBORNE MULTIWAVELENGTH LIDAR WILL BE DEVELOPED. THE TECHNOLOGY READINESS LEVEL AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE PHASE I PROGRAM IS ESTIMATED TO BE 2 AND AT THE EXIT OF THE PROGRAM WILL BE 3. THE PHASE II PROGRAM WILL DESIGN, FABRICATE AND GROUND TEST A PROTOTYPE LIDAR SYSTEM. OPPORTUNITIES FOR A FLIGHT DEMONSTRATION WILL BE IDENTIFIED. |

| NNX11CE31P | PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC. | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | $99.77K | 2011-02-18 | 2011-09-29 | 541712 | PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC. PROPOSES TO DESIGN, DEVELOP, AND DEMONSTRATE, A NOVEL HIGH PERFORMANCE MONOPROPELLANT FOR APPLICATION IN FUTURE PLANETARY ASCENT VEHICLES. OUR NON-CARCINOGENIC, NON-CRYOGENIC, MONOPROPELLANTS WILL SIGNIFICANTLY AUGMENT SPECIFIC IMPULSE AND DENSITY SPECIFIC IMPULSE OVER CONVENTIONAL MONOPROPELLANT AND BI-PROPELLANT SYSTEMS. IN PHASE I, THE PROPOSED INVESTIGATION WILL FOCUS UPON CHARACTERIZING CRITICAL THERMAL AND CHEMICAL BEHAVIOR OF OUR MONOPROPELLANTS TO ENSURE REALISTIC SYSTEM LEVEL DESIGN AND MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE OF FUTURE PLANETARY ASCENT VEHICLES. |
