- Reports high-energy confocal XRD for checkpoint security. The work was patented by NTU/Evans, US9063065-B2/EP2583088-B1 with rights commercialised by NTU spin-out, Halo X-ray Technologies under license (sxg@haloxay.com). Proof-of-principle enabled Halo to integrate/co-tune its HXT264 Technology with a Leidos Clearscan CT scanner, to form a HXT464 system (U.S. government, DHS Contract HSHQDC15CB0036); Analogic’s ConneCT CT scanner to form a system-of-systems; and Integrated Defence and Security Solutions (IDSS) DETECT1000 CT system to form a HXT464 system ($3.7 million to Halo total under DHS contract 70RSAT20CB0000025) (sharene.young@hq.dhs.gov, DHS S&T Explosives Division). Key paper for NTU’s IRC DASA grant (2020/2023) £300k and EP/T034238/1 (2021-2024) £1million.
