This Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I project will support the current trend in developing nanophase materials. This is spirited by an increasing need for nanometer-scale structures in a variety of applications. It is clear that to achieve unique mechanical, physical, chemical, and biomedical properties, it is necessary to develop novel synthesis routes by which an entirely new nanostructure can be developed. When the thickness of the metal down to nano-meters, the metal/dielectric multilayer coating exhibits metallic conductivity and dielectric transparency. The periodic nature of the metal/dielectric lattice causes the light to propagate through the metal layers with extremely low loss. The most unique feature of the metallic optical filter is the ability to have a single pass band and block all other radiation from static fields to soft X-rays. This remarkable property is a result of the highly dispersive nature of metals.This research program will develop a nano-engineered powder: bilayer coated nanopowder. This powder composses three functionalities: highly transparent, highly conductive and a broad band radiation blocking from static fields to soft X-rays. Development of such unique nanostructures would not only benefit the specific industrial applications, such as panel displace and anti-static/anti-reflection (ASAR) coating for lenses and CRT, but also the electronic industry, in general.

这个小型企业技术转移（STTR）第一阶段项目将支持当前发展纳米材料的趋势。这是由于在各种应用中对纳米级结构的需求日益增加而引起的。很明显，为了获得独特的机械、物理、化学和生物医学性能，有必要开发新的合成路线，从而开发出全新的纳米结构。当金属厚度降至纳米级时，金属/介电多层涂层表现出金属导电性和介电透明度。金属/介电晶格的周期性特性使得光以极低的损耗通过金属层传播。金属光学滤光片最独特的特点是具有单一通带的能力，并阻挡从静态场到软x射线的所有其他辐射。这种显著的特性是金属的高度分散性的结果。本研究计划将开发一种纳米工程粉末：双层包覆纳米粉末。这种粉末具有三种功能：高透明、高导电性和从静态场到软x射线的宽带辐射阻断。这种独特的纳米结构的发展不仅有利于特定的工业应用，如镜片和CRT的面板置换和防静电/抗反射（ASAR）涂层，而且一般也有利于电子工业。
