The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Science awarded Omega Optics, Inc., a minority-owned small business located in Austin, Texas, a $200,000 Project Grant under the Office of Science Financial Assistance Program (CFDA 81.049). The one-year award, effective July 10, 2023, will support the development of an ultra-sensitive detection system using surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensors with plasmonic-active nanotubes to monitor groundwater contaminants. This effort builds on Omega Optics' prior experience delivering advanced photonic and sensing technologies to federal agencies through SBIR/STTR contracts and grants. The Project Grant aims to advance scientific understanding and technological innovation in environmental monitoring and remediation.
