The extremelylow thermal capacitance and high heat transfer ability of these transparent forest-drawn carbonnanotube sheets enables high frequency modulation of sheet temperature over an enormoustemperature range, thereby providing a sharp, rapidly changing gradient of refractive index inthe surrounding liquid or gas. The advantages of temperature modulation using carbonnanotube sheets are multiple: in inert gases the temperature can reach >2500 K; the obtainedfrequency range for photothermal modulation is ∼100 kHz in gases and over 100 Hz in highrefractive index liquids; and the heat source is transparent for optical and acoustical waves.Unlike for conventional heat sources for photothermal deflection, the intensity and phase of thethermally modulated beam component linearly depends upon the beam-to-sheet separation overa wide range of distances. This aspect enables convenient measurements of accurate values forthermal diffusivity and the temperature dependence of refractive index for both liquids andgases. The remarkable performance of nanotube sheets suggests possible applications asphoto-deflectors and for switchable invisibility cloaks, and provides useful insights into theiruse as thermoacoustic projectors and sonar. Visibility cloaking is demonstrated in a liquid.
Agent-Based Computing in Distributed Adversarial Planning: Dr. Michal Pechoucek, Gerstner Laboratory, Department of Cybernetics, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague. PI: Dr. Michal Pechoucek, Gerstner Laboratory, Department of Cybernetics, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague. Funding: $135K; Source – OSD (Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Advanced Systems and Concepts) and EOARD. Duration: 18Months. Brief description: Gerstner Lab has been doing excellent work in Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) development for many years under AFOSR funding. In 2005 they were awarded a “most innovative paper” award for their description of their “A-Globe” MAS software development environment produced under EOARD funding. A-Globe has been selected for development of a MAS distributed Command and Control demonstration to carry out the task of decentralized air space deconfliction. The scenario environment is a 3-D airspace with a Web-based services architecture (individual computers represent individual aircraft, each having an autonomous “agent”). Weather, routing changes, and flight negotiations are carried out under an IPV6 ad hoc network. Multiple Agents (>80) establish and maintain communications and conduct flight path negotiations in a peer to peer fashion. Mr. Dick Lee, Assistant Deputy Under Secretary (Interoperability and Network Centric Warfare) (ODUSD, Advanced Systems and Concepts) has funded the second year of this effort. (*The ODUSD ASC support may not qualify as a “transition” by itself, but is indicative of how this project is valued as a potential solution for very near term airspace de-confliction needs)Biomimetic Silicon Nanostructure: Principal Investigator: Li-Chyong Chen, National Taiwan University. Ultimate optical stealth that can be grown on non-planar surfaces. You could grow this on a UAV skin. Anti-reflecting arrayed Si nanotips (SiNTs) made from Si wafer. After electron cyclotron resonance plasma-excited molecular beam epitaxy (ECR) process, the whole 6-inch wafer appears black to the naked eye. Comparative reflectance data taken from the Si substrate and ECR-processed Si nanotips. Two spectral ranges, the ultraviolet-visible and the mid-infrared are shown. Many plants and animals have tiny surface structures that absorb certain wavelengths of light. These naturally formed nanostructures provide the colors in butterfly wings, camouflage for cicadas and enable moths to capture as much light as possible when flying at night. #3 - Experimental Investigation of Laser-Induced Air Breakdown in Low-Density Hypersonic Flow. In collaboration with a US-based research team, the scientists are conducting the experiments in the Brazilian lab's 0.3-m hypersonic shock tunnel, which can produce airflow with Mach numbers up to 15 and air velocities approaching 5 km/s. The two-hour flight from New York to Tokyo could someday be a reality with the development of a hypersonic transatmospheric vehicle. Such aircraft, though, would routinely face aerodynamic drag and heating on a par with conventional spacecraft developed for less-routine flights. In the early 1990s, researchers first coined the term DEAS, or directed energy air spike, to describe a method to reduce drag and heating by adding energy to the air ahead of the vehicle. One way to accomplish this would be to focus a powerful laser beam ahead of the flight path. Marco A.S. Minucci and colleagues at the Laboratory of Aerothermodynamics and Hypersonics-CTA in São José dos Campos, Brazil, are studying the DEAS effect using optical breakdown upstream of a model that is induced by a CO2 transversely excited atmospheric pressure laser.
