This is a $7,399,980.00 definitive contract awarded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to Haverford College, a private non-profit educational institution. The contract, which has no set-aside designation, is for the "SYNERGISTIC DISCOVERY & DESIGN (SD2) PHASE 1 - BASE" effort, which aims to develop automated, high-throughput robotic platforms for organohalide hybrid perovskite discovery and models for organohalide perovskite formation and stability.
Haverford College has subcontracted work to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), and Fordham University. MIT will focus on high-throughput thin-film deposition and accelerated aging tests, as well as transfer-learning between perovskite synthesis. Berkeley Lab will use high-throughput robotic workflows for prototyping, developing workflows, and advanced characterization. Fordham University will guide the development of experiment plans, data collection, and materials design algorithms for the project.
