Closed Solicitation · DEPT OF DEFENSE
AI Summary
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is seeking information on photonic integrated circuits (PICs) for quantum technology applications. This Request for Information (RFI) aims to identify investment opportunities in foundry platforms that support the development of quantum-tailored PICs, enhancing the domestic quantum manufacturing ecosystem.
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Microsystems Technology Office (MTO) seeks information on the photonic integrated circuit (PIC) needs of quantum technology companies, particularly for systems based on quantum resources such as neutral atoms, trapped ions, color centers, quantum dots, or other matter-based quantum resources, hereafter referred to as “quantum emitters.” DARPA intends to use responses to this Request for Information (RFI) to identify potential opportunities for investment in broadly-applicable foundry platforms to provide an accessible domestic resource for end users of quantum-tailored PICs within the broader quantum manufacturing ecosystem.
REQUEST FOR INFORMATION: QUANTUM-INTERFACE-COMPATIBLE PHOTONIC INTEGRATED CIRCUITS (QUIC PICS) is a federal acquisition solicitation issued by DEPT OF DEFENSE. Review the full description, attachments, and submission requirements on SamSearch before the response deadline.
