The Department of Defense, specifically the United States Air Force (USAF), is seeking proposals for the development of two-micron wavelength fiber-coupled semiconductor lasers under the SBIR program. The objective is to create and deliver five packaged units of compact laser sources that emit over 500 mW of continuous wave (CW) power, with specific requirements for beam quality, weight, and volume. These lasers are intended for use in compact LADAR systems, which are critical for various intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) applications. Interested parties must submit their proposals by November 6, 2024, and can find more information on the solicitation through the provided link to the DOD SBIR/STTR website.
