- This federal contract was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to E Beam Inc., a veteran-owned small business. The definitive, firm-fixed price contract is valued at $749,543 and was issued under NASA's SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) Program Phase II. The contract is for the research, development, and delivery of an ultra-compact 35.7 GHz klystron amplifier that can be used for remote sensing on CubeSats. The amplifier is designed to provide over 32...
- This federal contract award to Alphacore Inc., a small business, is for the design and simulation of a radiation-hardened, gallium nitride-based Ka-band power amplifier for CubeSat applications. The $124,864 Phase I Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract calls for the amplifier to produce over 32 watts of saturated output power with over 20% power-added efficiency, while maintaining over 35 dB of gain across the 35.5 GHz to 35.9 GHz frequency range. The amplifier is to be implemented...
- This is a $124,967.00 firm fixed-price, definitive contract awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to E Beam Inc., a veteran-owned small business based in Beaverton, Oregon. The contract is for research and development under NASA's Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program Phase I on innovations in hollow cathode construction technology for electric propulsion systems. As a small business set-aside, this award builds upon E Beam Inc.'s prior SBIR contracts...
