The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), a civilian agency within the Department of Commerce, awarded a $144,695 firm-fixed-price purchase order to Starfire Industries LLC for the development and delivery of a portable Deuterium-Deuterium (DD) Neutron Generator. This contract, issued on March 30, 2026, with an ultimate completion date of November 11, 2026, was awarded under unrestricted competition with no set-aside designation. The neutron generator will support NIST's advancement of semiconductor material measurement capabilities through the development of a portable Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis (PGAA) system designed to measure hydrogen content and material purity in semiconductor materials as part of the broader CHIPS initiative.
Starfire Industries LLC, a small business headquartered in Champaign, Illinois, specializes in advanced materials, manufacturing technologies, and precision scientific instrumentation, with extensive experience developing neutron generators and plasma sources for federal agencies including the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Defense, and DARPA. The neutron generator must meet rigorous technical specifications including a minimum neutron output of 5×10⁶ neutrons per second, over 1,000 hours of sealed tube lifetime, operation at 120V with air cooling, and capability for both continuous and pulsed operation modes. Delivery is to occur at NIST's Gaithersburg, Maryland facility, and the contractor must provide user training and a minimum 12-month warranty with 500 operating hours coverage.
