About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The Air Force Research Laboratory issued a delivery order to Azimuth Corporation, a women-owned small business, on April 2, 2024, under the Materials Research and Survivability Studies II (MARSS II) single-award indefinite delivery contract with a $19.7 million ceiling for this task order through July 2, 2027.

MARSS II is a single-award IDC with the Air Force Research Laboratory supporting materials research, characterization, device development, and advanced photonics and optical technology initiatives. Place of performance is Beavercreek Township, Ohio.

This delivery order spans an 18-month effort centered on computational electromagnetics modeling tools for time-varying electromagnetic systems, specifically space-time metasurfaces. Work includes developing efficient modeling approaches for scattering characteristics from periodic and aperiodic metasurface systems, with ultimate objectives of modeling conformal metasurfaces with spatial and temporal variation. The order also covers 3D topology optimization of optical metasurfaces using MATLAB and Python interfaces to computational electromagnetics backends including Lumerical, multilayer coating design optimization using enhanced LayersPro software with pigment modeling modules, and materials characterization and optical component development for high-power fiber laser systems using hyperbaric-pressure laser chemical vapor deposition techniques.

Named subcontractors include the University of Michigan (computational electromagnetics modeling and space-time metasurface development), Leidos, Inc. (high-power laser fiber cladding development), Sri International (3D topology optimization software development), and William H Southwell doing business as Table Mountain Optics (multilayer coating design optimization). Raytheon Company and BAE Systems Information & Electronic Systems Integration Inc. are also performing subcontract work on related materials research and laser infrared counter-measures development scopes within the broader task order.
