- This $203,947.34 federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was made to the Regents of the University of Michigan to develop novel metamaterial silicon half-wave plates and anti-reflection coatings for use in cosmic microwave background observations. The contract, which does not have a set-aside designation, runs through December 1, 2020 and is intended to produce lower-loss and broader-bandwidth polarization modulation components to enable unambiguous...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $527,537 grant to the Regents of the University of Michigan, doing business as the University of Michigan, to develop novel arrays of feedhorn coupled, multichroic polarimeters. This technology will enable highly sensitive measurement and characterization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization, which has the potential to reveal evidence of gravitational waves produced during the inflationary epoch of the early...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $217,332.00 grant to the University of Chicago for research and development of optical and optical coupling technologies for future satellite-based Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) missions. The research aims to develop anti-reflection coatings, filters, and feedhorns that will enable high-frequency, high-performance CMB measurements from 30-400 GHz to separate cosmological signals from foregrounds. The technologies being...
- This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) to develop the next generation of photonics spectrometers and filters for astrophysics and space science applications. The $860,473.64 grant aims to broaden the wavelength range, increase the spectral resolving power, and improve the polarization independence and throughput of the university's existing photonic spectrometer and filter prototypes. This effort...
- This is a $722,627 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Regents of the University of Colorado (CU) for research on "Large Imaging Arrays of Detectors at Millimeter and Submillimeter Wavelengths". The award is for a project titled "Broadband Scalable Metamaterial Lenslet Arrays for Spaceborne Millimeter-Wavelength Imaging" under NASA's Astrophysics Research and Analysis (APRA) program. The research aims to develop advanced detector...
- This is a $99,999.94 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Northwestern University, in collaboration with the University of Illinois (UIUC), to develop a game-changing technology for large deployable optical quality mirrors. The project aims to combine a flying magnetic write head with a magnetic smart material coating the back of the mirror to enable post-deployment figure corrections to the level of 1/20th of a wavelength. This grant is part of NASA's...
- This federal grant award to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Projects Administration, aims to advance a radiative thermal management system by developing a solid-state phase-change metamaterial that can adaptively control the spectrum of emission and absorption of radiation. The $336,000.00 grant, funded by a civilian federal agency, will leverage the university's expertise in metamaterials and nanofabrication to design and test an...
