About this IDV

The Other Transaction IDV was awarded on May 12, 2020 by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency to provide engineering of quantum fluctuations with epsilon-near-zero materials. The University of California, Davis is the prime contractor, with the parent organization being the State of California Controllers Office.

The potential value of the contract is $1,673,498.00. The contract aims to procure research and development services related to engineering quantum fluctuations with novel materials possessing epsilon-near-zero properties. These materials have permittivities approaching zero, which could enable new capabilities for sensing, imaging, and nonlinear optics. The contractor will conduct theoretical and experimental work to better understand quantum effects in these materials and explore potential engineering applications.

The period of performance and places where work will be conducted are not specified in the available information. As the funding agency is DARPA, the ultimate goal is likely to advance technologies with military and national security applications, such as quantum sensing and novel optical devices. However, the work here appears to be in the early research stage.
