About this IDV
Amprius Inc. is developing silicon nanowire lithium-ion battery cells under an Other Transaction agreement with the Department of the Army. The objective of this agreement is to double the endurance of nano-unmanned aerial systems batteries through an improvement in energy density and cycle life. With a potential value of $603,819, this agreement aims to modify Amprius' silicon nanowire anode technology for application in batteries powering small unmanned aircraft systems.
By enabling higher energy storage per unit weight, silicon nanowire lithium-ion batteries could extend the operational duration of nano-UAS used for reconnaissance, surveillance, and other mission-critical Army applications. Amprius specializes in anode materials that provide up to a 100% gain in energy density over conventional lithium-ion battery technologies. Under this agreement, the company will apply its silicon nanowire technology toward developing battery cells tailored for doubling the flight times of nano-UAS through an optimized balance of capacity and cycle life.
