- Description
- NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, VA solicits interest from companiesinterested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture and market thefollowing technology. License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basisand may include specific fields of use. THE TECHNOLOGY: NASA Langley has developed a technology portfolio and core competencies around advancedpiezoelectric actuator designs. Leveraging NASA-patented macro-fiber composite (MFC) andpiezoelectric fiber composite (PFC) actuator technology, NASA Langley has developed avariety of award-winning actuator architectures specifically designed to strain-tuneoptical fiber sensors; they also hold potential as microdisplacement devices. The NASAportfolio includes curved piezoelectric actuators for stretching optical fibers (CASF),interdigitated electrode actuators for straining optical fibers (IDEAS), and cylindricalshaped macro-fiber composite (CMFC) actuators. NASA has refined these actuators to enablehigh-speed straintuning of Bragg-grating-based fiber lasers. The versatility of the NASAelectroactive actuator designs may be broadlyapplied to numerous applications requiring high-speed response, large displacement, and asmall, lightweight profile.To express interest in this opportunity, please respond to Sean Sullivan, ResearchTriangle International (RTI), at: NASA Langley Research Center, Strategic RelationshipsOffice (SRSO),17 West Taylor St., Mail Stop 218, Building 1212, Room 110 Hampton,Virginia, E-mail: Sean.D.Sullivan@NASA.gov, or phone: 757-864-5055. Please indicate thedate and title of the FBO notice and include your company and contact information.RTI is responsible for aggregating and acknowledging all responses. These responses areprovided to members of NASA Langleys Innovative Partnerships Office within the SRO forthe purpose of promoting public awareness of our technology products, and conductingpreliminary market research to determine public interest in and potential for futurelicensing opportunities. If direct licensing interest results from this posting, SRO willfollow the formal licensing process of posting in the Federal Register as required. Nofollow-on procurement is expected to result from responses to this Notice.
