About this award
This is a $124,998 firm-fixed-price Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I contract awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Cree Fayetteville, Inc., doing business as Arkansas Power Electronics International (APEI), to develop and commercialize a high-reliability, high-temperature smart neutron flux sensor for NASA nuclear thermal propulsion (NTP) systems. The contract aims to leverage APEI's expertise in wide-bandgap electronics, nano-diamond neutron flux sensors, and harsh environment packaging to deliver instrumentation capable of operating in extreme temperatures over 700°C. This solution could also have applications in terrestrial nuclear power generation. The contract was awarded on June 17, 2015, with a completion date of December 17, 2015.
Description
The objective of this proposal is to develop and commercialize a high reliability, high temperature smart neutron flux sensor for NASA nuclear thermal propulsion (NTP) systems. Arkansas power electronics international (apei) and international femtoscience (femtosci) technology offers the following: (1) 600+ degc ambient operation of a full wireless smart sensor system (2) extreme-environment electronics utilizing wide band GAP integrated circuits and advanced magnetic components (3) CVD nano-diamond neutron flux sensor for near-core measurements, capable of operation to>700 degc (4) harsh environment packaging technologies to ensure reliable operation at 700 degc (5) radiation hard, high temperature electronics will offer high reliability nuclear propulsion instrumentation, as well as provide solutions for terrestrial nuclear power generation instrumentation.
