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.

Silicon photonic waveguide antennas and optical phased arrays
969586
The aim of the Project is to develop photonic components and devices for integrated optical phased arrays. Novel design approaches will be explored to achieve ultra-compact integrated antennas. The antenna designs will be evaluated in terms of key target parameters, including radiation efficiency, directionality, field divergence, and aperture size. The Project will build on existing simulation and design work on silicon waveguide antennas to plan for the fabrication and characterization of the antenna elements. The ultimate goal of the collaborative research is to realize small-size arrays in order to demonstrate their functionality and the compatibility of the antenna designs with high-density integration schemes. System parameters, including control complexity, power, linearity, bandwidth, and side lobe suppression will be evaluated during the design of the arrays. Selected optimized designs will be fabricated for experimental proof-of-concept demonstration.
