About this award
NASA's Shared Services Center awarded a purchase order to The Pennsylvania State University valued at $54,370.00 on July 9, 2026, for contact metallization development for high-temperature GaN amplifiers, with final completion by January 11, 2027.
Work is performed at State College, Pennsylvania. Penn State will develop Ohmic contact metallization on AlGaN/GaN substrates enabling GaN amplifiers to operate at 800°C for a minimum of 1 hour in air, with deliverables including documented test results demonstrating stable specific contact resistance as a function of temperature. The technology aligns with results reported in IEEE Electron Device Letters 46, 1309, 2025. All processes and technical documentation must be delivered within 6 months of purchase order receipt to enable GaN amplifier fabrication. The solicitation (ID 80NSSC26936838Q) was posted June 30, 2026, with capability statements due July 2, 2026.
