About this award
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) awarded a definitive cost-plus-fixed-fee contract valued at $7.49 million to Sri International to support the Heterogenous Adaptively Produced Photonic Interfaces (HAPPI) program. The contract, awarded on March 13, 2025, with performance concluding by September 13, 2026, will be executed at Sri International's Menlo Park, California facility. The HAPPI program seeks to achieve a 1,000x increase in information transmission density within microsystems by leveraging photonic signaling technology, representing a revolutionary advancement in chip-to-chip and intra-chip optical routing capabilities for integrated photonic microsystems.
Under this award, Sri International will conduct research and development activities spanning a two-phase effort focused on demonstrating feasible three-dimensional optical routing in integrated photonics and subsequently validating array density and manufacturability. The work supports DARPA's objective to deliver advanced photonic solutions meeting stringent technical requirements, including optical loss per link below 1 decibel, link arrays up to 1,000 x 1,000 channels, and operation across the 400-1,800 nanometer wavelength range. No small business set-aside applies to this contract. The overall HAPPI program encompasses $30 million in total funding with multiple anticipated awards across both defense and commercial applications.
