About this award
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) awarded a $16.2K purchase order to Avro Inc.'s AVR Optics division on March 25, 2026, for motorized positioners to support advanced semiconductor technology research and development initiatives. This firm fixed-price contract, with a completion date of June 24, 2026, fulfills NIST's need for custom-built automated optical and RF wafer probing systems equipped with motorized linear translation stages designed for high-frequency transistor characterization and model verification under the CHIPS Act program. The award was not designated as a set-aside procurement. The equipment will be installed and utilized in the High Frequency Electronic Laboratory at NIST's facility in Boulder, Colorado, where it will support measurement techniques and transistor model development to improve yield and reproducibility in millimeter wave frequency applications.
AVR Optics, a foreign-owned photonics company headquartered in Fairport, New York, brings relevant expertise in precision optical and photonics equipment for research and development applications. The company has established itself as a reliable supplier of specialized scientific instruments to federal agencies, with seven prime contract awards totaling approximately $809K since 2021. The motorized positioners being delivered under this contract are expected to meet NIST's technical requirements, including travel ranges of 75 millimeters or greater, minimum incremental movements of 20 nanometers or smaller, linear motor drive systems, crossed-roller bearings, integrated optical encoders for closed-loop positioning, and the capacity to support centered loads of 100 Newtons or greater.
