We continue our campaign of multi-wavelength observations of Fermi-LAT gamma-ray sources utilizing the Chandra ACIS-S instrument. These observations are to search for and determine properties of significant X-ray point sources that might be associated with the recently discovered rotation-powered pulsars J1514-49, J1658-53, J1302-32, J2017+06, and J1103-53. All of these pulsars were originally discovered in radio searches of Fermi-LAT unassociated gamma-ray sources. Chandra can localize X-ray point sources with arc second positional accuracy and characterize their X-ray spectral properties. We report on the X-ray fluxes and spectral properties of the associated X-ray sources found in our observations and compare these properties with those of other rotation-powered X-ray and gamma-ray pulsars. We also discuss other interesting sources uncovered by our observations in the fields of our target pulsars.
