CHIPS for America Awards

Laser Thermal Analysis, Inc. – Charlottesville, VA
Award Amount: $289,830
CHIPS Organization
CHIPS SBIR
Develop hybrid atomic force microscopy instrument that will automatically generate maps of the thermal resistance, thermal boundary interface resistance, and temperature profiles of microprocessors and wide bandgap semiconductor materials and devices. This project will benefit devices with thermal management challenges and materials development needs on length scales smaller than 100 nanometers.
Photon Spot, Inc. – Monrovia, CA
Award Amount: $283,393
CHIPS Organization
CHIPS SBIR
Develop an ultra-compact, ultra-low vibration cryogenic system to support time-resolved imaging applications. This project will benefit integrated circuit manufacturers and researchers conducting experiments on quantum technologies.
ReconRF – San Diego, CA
Award Amount: $286,787
CHIPS Organization
CHIPS SBIR
Develop next-generation large-signal and high-power transistor modeling techniques to create highly accurate models for Radio Frequency (RF)-Microwave circuit design simulators. This project will benefit researchers and U.S. manufacturers of advanced radar, communications, and satellite technologies.
Photothermal Spectroscopy Corporation – Santa Barbara, CA
Award Amount: $283,489
CHIPS Organization
CHIPS SBIR
Develop a new instrument for high-speed thermal properties analysis and simultaneous chemical characterization with sub-micron spatial resolution. This project will improve thermal management and thermal property characterization for the U.S. semiconductor industry.
Direct Electron LP – Rancho Bernardo, CA
Award Amount: $289,292
CHIPS Organization
CHIPS SBIR
Develop a novel high-speed camera for high-resolution electron backscatter diffraction and transmission Kikuchi diffraction which will significantly expand the materials properties that can be probed with this technique. This project will benefit U.S. industry using materials characterization for current and next-generation microelectronics devices.
