High-Temperature GaN Amplifier Fabrication

NASA is seeking a subcontractor to design and fabricate twenty high-performance gallium nitride amplifiers capable of operating continuously at 800 degrees Celsius in ambient air for a minimum of one hour while meeting strict performance criteria. The amplifiers must be research-grade and engineered to withstand extreme thermal conditions without degradation, requiring advanced material integration and thermal management solutions. This effort supports mission-critical applications where conventional electronics fail, and reliability under sustained high-temperature exposure is essential. The solicitation is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 334418, and responses are due by July 2, 2026, at 1:00 PM. The contract is managed by the NASA Shared Services Center on behalf of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, with no specific set-aside provisions indicated. The place of performance and exact point of contact details are not provided, but all work must align with NASA’s technical requirements for operation in harsh environments, with deliverables expected to include fully tested and validated amplifier units ready for integration into experimental systems.
