WE PROPOSE TO DEMONSTRATE INNOVATIONS IN POWER GENERATION AND STORAGE TECHNOLOGIES THAT PROVIDE HIGHER CONVERSION EFFICIENCY AND ENERGY DENSITY TO EXTEND MISSION CAPABILITY FOR SMALL SPACECRAFT IN EARTH ORBIT AND BEYOND. THIS PROPOSAL IS IN RESPONSE TO THE ENHANCED POWER GENERATION AND STORAGE TOPIC. THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS WORK WILL BE TO DEMONSTRATE THE SUCCESSFUL INTEGRATION OF NANOMATERIAL-ENHANCED DEVICES INTO A CUBESAT SPACE POWER SYSTEM. SPECIFICALLY WE WILL INTEGRATE BANDGAP ENGINEERED QUANTUM DOT AND QUANTUM WELL (QD/QW) SOLAR CELLS METAL-FREE CARBON NANOTUBE (CNT) BASED CONDUCTORS CNT ENHANCED HIGH ENERGY DENSITY LITHIUM ION BATTERIES AND NANOSCALE THERMOELECTRIC HEAT MANAGEMENT DEVICES INTO A CUBESAT VEHICLE. SINCE 2001 NANOPOWER RESEARCH LABORATORIES (NPRL) AT ROCHESTER INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY (RIT) HAS BEEN COLLABORATING WITH THE NASA GLENN RESEARCH CENTER ON THE ADVANCING THE SYNTHESIS AND MODIFICATION OF NANOMATERIALS FOR USE IN AEROSPACE APPLICATIONS. THE MAJORITY OF THIS WORK HAS BEEN ON THE USE OF NANOMATERIALS TO IMPROVE THE GENERATION TRANSMISSION AND ENERGY STORAGE IN AEROSPACE POWER SYSTEMS. HIGHLIGHTS OF OUR PREVIOUS COLLABORATIONS INCLUDE THE DEMONSTRATED CONTROL OVER THE EPITAXIAL GROWTH OF STRAIN BALANCED QD/QW STRUCTURES WITH TUNABLE BAND GAPS THE USE OF HIGH-PURITY SINGLE WALL CARBON NANOTUBES INTO METAL-FREE WIRES AND CABLES AND THE USE OF CNTS IN LITHIUM ION BATTERIES TO ACHIEVE ENERGY DENSITIES IN EXCESS OF 300 WHR/KG. THESE EVOLUTIONARY ADVANCEMENTS IN EACH TECHNOLOGY WHEN COMBINED TOGETHER CAN TRANSLATE INTO REVOLUTIONARY CHANGES AT THE SYSTEM LEVEL FOR LARGE-SCALE SPACE MISSIONS. A CRITICAL STEP ALONG THAT REVOLUTIONARY PATH IS DEMONSTRATION OF THE TECHNOLOGY ON BOARD A CUBESAT DEPLOYMENT TO HELP ACCELERATE QUALIFICATION FOR SPACE MISSIONS.
