The Naval Research Laboratory intends to award a sole source purchase order to Coherent NA, Inc. for the Verdi G5 OPSLaser-Diode System, citing unusual and compelling urgency as the justification for bypassing competitive procedures. This procurement is being conducted under Simplified Acquisition Procedures in accordance with FAR Part 13.106-1(b), with a value not exceeding the $350,000 threshold, and falls under NAICS code 334516 with a size standard of 1000 employees and FSC/PSC 6640. The requirement is exclusively for this specific laser system, as no other supplier or alternative product is deemed capable of meeting the agency’s needs. Public interest in competing for this contract may be expressed by the specified deadline, but responses must provide clear and convincing evidence that competition would benefit the government; failure to do so will result in no change to the planned sole source award. All correspondence must reference the Notice of Intent number and no costs incurred in submitting information will be reimbursed. The procurement is managed under the Department of Defense with point of contact Teigh Cheyney at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, D.C.

PPLN Waveguide Mixer Design and FabricationThe contract requires the design, fabrication, and testing of a custom 2×1 periodically poled lithium niobate waveguide mixer intended for use as an optical parametric amplifier in quantum photonic systems. The device must operate with a 780 nm pump wavelength and a 1560 nm signal wavelength, delivering a minimum output power of 4 milliwatts and achieving at least 3.5 decibels of squeezed light performance, critical for quantum noise reduction applications. The waveguide structure must be precisely engineered to enable efficient nonlinear interactions and maintain stability under operational conditions, with all phases of development—from simulation and prototyping to rigorous optical testing—expected to meet exacting technical specifications. The work is issued as a subcontract under the National Research Council of Canada, part of the Government of Canada, and is focused on the National Capital Region for performance. The solicitation was posted on June 26, 2026, with responses due by July 12, 2026, and falls under NAICS code 334516, indicating classification within the manufacturing of optical instruments and lenses. While no set-aside provisions or point of contact details are specified, the urgency and precision required suggest a highly specialized technical effort, likely targeting vendors with prior experience in nonlinear optical materials, chip-scale photonics, and quantum light source development. All deliverables must be fully documented and validated to ensure readiness for integration into advanced quantum photonic platforms.

Sources Sought Notice for a Close Fixture for Suss Wafer BonderNIST is seeking information from industry to support the future procurement of a universal silicon carbide (SiC) closed fixture for its SUSS Gen2 Wafer Bonder, a specialized tool used in advanced materials research and semiconductor development. The fixture must be capable of supporting a wide range of bonding processes—including thermocompression, eutectic, adhesion, anodic, and fusion bonds—across substrate sizes from 10 mm to at least 150 mm. The central plate must be made of new SiC material, capable of withstanding a 20 kN force while maintaining the flatness required for precise operation, and the entire system, including three clamping arms, must endure operating temperatures up to 550°C, chamber overpressures of at least 2 bar, and vacuum levels as low as 5.0 x 10^-5 mbar. All components must be new, not rebuilt, and the final installation and acceptance testing will occur at NIST’s CNST NanoFab cleanroom in Gaithersburg, Maryland. This sources sought notice is not a solicitation or request for quotation, and no award will result from responses. Interested parties are asked to provide company information, including contact details, SAM.gov UEI, capability statements, and evidence of authorization if acting as a reseller. Respondents are encouraged to identify any requirements that may be unduly restrictive and suggest modifications to foster broader participation, especially from small businesses. They must indicate whether they are small or other-than-small businesses, propose an alternative NAICS code if deemed more appropriate, and disclose any existing federal contracts applicable to the product. NIST will use all submitted information solely for market research to shape a future acquisition and reserves the right to use responses for any purpose. Responses are due by July 7, 2026, and questions must be submitted by July 2, 2026, to be addressed in a public amendment.
