Grants and Contributions

About this information

In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.

The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.

Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Advancement of DMDs for the CASTOR UV MOS

Agreement Number:

1028950

Duration: from Mar 24, 2025 to Mar 20, 2028
Description:

The team led by PI Vorobiev will collaborate with the Lead Principal Researcher, John Pazder at HAA-RC, on the development and fabrication of digital micromirror devices (DMDs) optimized for use in the near-UV/optical regime (150 – 550 nm). To enable performance in this spectral range, LASP will modify commercially available DMDs in two key ways: 1) replacing the commercial window with a UV-transparent material and 2) re-coating commercially available DMDs with Al/MgF2 coatings. As part of this effort, LASP will develop equipment and procedures to protect DMDs during the coating process.
