About this award

The Air Force Research Laboratory awarded a Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I contract to Voss Scientific LLC, an Albuquerque, New Mexico-based small business specializing in computational physics and directed energy technologies. The $179,995 firm-fixed-price purchase order, awarded on December 12, 2024, with completion targeted for October 13, 2025, will focus on demonstrating a seed burst generator, selecting ultrashort pulse laser (USPL) wavelength and amplifier technology, and designing a beam matching and launch (BML) system. This represents a collaborative effort between the company and a research partner to advance laser technology capabilities relevant to Air Force research objectives.

Voss Scientific brings substantial relevant experience to this effort, having successfully executed prior Air Force Research Laboratory contracts including development of a Live USPL Characterization System and various directed energy research initiatives. The company has also completed Office of Science grant-funded research addressing thermally induced birefringence in high average-power laser amplifiers, demonstrating its technical depth in laser amplification challenges. As a registered SAM.gov small business since 2002, Voss Scientific has established a track record working across multiple federal research and defense domains, positioning it well to execute this Phase I demonstration and technology selection effort.
