- Description
- NASA�s Technology Transfer Program solicits inquiries from companies interested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture and market the following technology.� License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis and may include specific fields of use.��NASA provides no funding in conjunction with these potential licenses. THE TECHNOLOGY: Few sensors are available to detect inert gases. Conventional inert gas analysis tools primarily rely upon infrared (IR) spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy (MS) and/or thermal conductivity measurements.� Thermal conductivity sensors are available for fixed and portable instruments, but this technique is not suitable for measuring extremely low concentration levels of a gas.� NASA Ames has patented a novel technology that is relatively lightweight, small size sensor, consumes a relatively small amount of power for detection of inert gases.� The technology is a use of a vertical alighted multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) based discharge gas sensor array for highly sensitive and selective electrical detection of inert gases, such as argon, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, etc. at room temperature.� The sensing approach is based on generating an electrical discharge current and measuring the specific gas breakdown voltage associated with each gas present in a sample. To express interest in this opportunity, please submit a license application through NASA�s Automated Technology Licensing Application System (ATLAS) by visiting https://technology.nasa.gov/patent/TOP2-111 If you have any questions, please contact Ames Research Center ARC-TechTransfer@mail.nasa.gov with the title of this Technology Transfer Opportunity as listed in this FBO notice and your preferred contact information.� For more information about licensing other NASA-developed technologies, please visit the NASA Technology Transfer Portal at https://technology.nasa.gov/ These responses are provided to members of NASA�s Technology Transfer Program for the purpose of promoting public awareness of NASA-developed technology products, and conducting preliminary market research to determine public interest in and potential for future licensing opportunities.��No follow-on procurement is expected to result from responses to this Notice.
