About this award

This federal contract award, valued at $876,372.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to conduct research on "LOW-LOSS, LOW-NOISE AMORPHOUS SILICON DIELECTRIC FOR KINETIC INDUCTANCE DETECTOR CAPACITORS AND SUPERCONDUCTING MICROSTRIPLINE". The award, which does not have a set-aside designation, is a grant for research with an ultimate completion date of July 31, 2026.

Caltech, a private research university renowned for its cutting-edge scientific research and technological innovation, is a frequent recipient of federal contract and grant awards from agencies such as NASA, the Department of Defense, DARPA, and the National Science Foundation. The university collaborates with major contractors and research institutions to execute complex research and development projects, and also holds an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with DARPA for "CHIP-BASED PHOTON ADDITION" services, valued at $1,000,000.00. This contract award is likely part of Caltech's broader efforts to support national security, scientific exploration, and technological advancement through advanced research across diverse domains.
