About this award
This federal contract award, with an ID of HR001115C0155, was issued by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) for the "ELECTRICAL PRESCRIPTIONS (ELECTRX) - MAGNETIC NEURAL EXCITATION (MAGNEX) BASIC CONTRACT". The $1,933,355.00 definitive contract has no set-aside designation and is for a cost-no-fee type of pricing. The contract aims to develop resonantly-bonded visible-band tunable materials that can selectively absorb or transmit visible light frequencies, with potential defense applications like active camouflage, lightweight power generation, and improved optical sensors or displays.
MIT has awarded a subcontract under this contract to The General Hospital Corporation Research Management Division, doing business as Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), to provide specialized research services including the design of magnetic nanoparticle experiments, rodent behavioral experiments, and support for intellectual property and commercialization efforts related to the MAGNEX technology. DARPA and MIT have an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity other transaction authority contract valued at up to $1 million, under which DARPA can issue specific task orders to MIT for tunable materials research projects.
