Abstract: THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO EVALUATE THE FEASIBILITY OF GROWTH OR FUSION OF OPTOELECTRONIC DEVICES DIRECTLY ONTO THE OPTICAL FIBER. THIS APPROACH WILL HAVE SIGNIFICANT IMPLICATION AND BENEFITS ON FUTURE FIBER OPTIC COMMUNICATIONS. TO ACHIEVE THE OBJECTIVE, A COMPLETE LITERATURE SEARCH… more
Company: 3s Navigation (dba For Agency/Program/Year/Phase: HHS / SBIR / 1988 / 1
Abstract: THE HISPANIC HEALTH AND NUTRITION EXAMINATION SURVEY (HHANES) CONTAINS A WEALTH OF INFORMATION FOR THE CANCER RESEARCH PROFESSIONAL. THE UTILITY OF THIS DATA BASE CAN BE SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVED BY PROVIDING A SIMPLE USER INTERFACE SOFTWARE PACKAGE THAT CONVERTS THE DATA INTO USABLE INPUT FOR A… more
Company: Advanced Fuel Research, Inc. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NSF / SBIR / 1988 / 2
Abstract: MANY IMPORTANT PROBLEMS IN CHARACTERIZING MATERIALS IN THE EARTH'S LITHOSPHERE INVOLVE DETERMINING BOTH ORGANIC AND INORGANIC CONSTITUENTS. RECENT PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE IN THE USE OF THERMAL ANALYSIS IN WHICH THE SAMPLE IS TAKEN THROUGH A TEMPERATURE EXCURSION AND ITS WEIGHT LOSS OR EVOLVED… more
Company: Advanced Fuel Research, Inc. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOE / SBIR / 1988 / 1
Abstract: THE RECENT DISCOVERY OF HIGH TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTING MATERIALS HAS LED TO RENEWED INTEREST IN THE APPLICATION OF SUPERCONDUCTIVITY.

There are several categories such as “By Agency”, “By Year”, “By State” etc. Select a checkbox within a category to refine your search results.
Each of your selections is listed in the “Narrow Search Filters” bar. You can uncheck these selections to remove them.
Search for Either Criteria
When you select multiple values within a category, the results will include values that match either of the selections. For example, selecting “2005” and “2007” in the “By Year” category will display results that include either 2005 OR 2007 in the results.
Narrowing the Search Results
You can refine your search results across categories. To narrow down your results, select multiple values across different categories. The results will only include values that match the selections across the categories. For example, selecting “2005” in the “By Year” category and “NASA” in the “By Agency” category will only display the results that contain both “2005” AND “NASA” in the results.
