This is a Cost Plus Fixed Fee contract awarded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to SRI International, a non-profit research institute, to apply an inverse-scattering model to design and demonstrate efficient linear frequency converters by integrating metasurfaces with engineered quantum systems. The contract has a potential value of $1,460,394.00 and a completion date of August 5, 2022. The original solicitation sought innovative research proposals to advance the understanding of light-matter interactions and enable revolutionary advances in science, devices, or systems.

The contract includes subcontract work with Vanderbilt University, a private research university, to fabricate and demonstrate various SRI-designed, frequency-converting metasurface elements. This work is likely part of DARPA's broader research efforts in areas such as quantum computing, critical mineral mapping, and biomedical innovation. The contract does not use a set-aside designation.
