AI Contract Overview
The Naval Research Laboratory intends to award a sole source purchase order to Nuphoton Technologies, Inc., a small business, for the procurement of a 2-micrometer fiber laser with an output power exceeding 8 Watts. This equipment is specifically required for laser power beaming experiments under the Covert Microconcentrator-based Optical Beaming of Infrared Laser Energy project. To meet technical requirements, the laser must provide an output power of at least 8W, preferably 10W, and a wavelength of 2036 nm or greater to prevent water-vapor absorption in the atmosphere. This procurement will be conducted using Simplified Acquisition Procedures under FAR Part 13.106-1(b), as the purchase is expected to fall below the $350,000 threshold. The requirement is classified under NAICS code 334413 and PSC code 6640.
