About this IDV

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency awarded an Other Transaction IDV to the University of Texas at Austin with a ceiling of $1,200,000 on June 17, 2025, for the Deuterium-Assisted MEMS Passivation and ALD-Enabled Response (DAMPER) program. Operating outside the FAR, this OTA IDV supports advanced materials research in microelectromechanical systems passivation techniques using deuterium and atomic layer deposition methods. The University of Texas at Austin, a public research institution, brings established capability in materials science and microsystems engineering through its federally-funded research portfolio spanning aerospace engineering, quantum computing, and advanced manufacturing. The university's prior Other Transaction agreement with DARPA on the Additive Manufacturing of Microsystems (AMME) program demonstrates relevant technical depth in precision manufacturing research. UT Austin operates as a federal research partner across the Department of Defense, NASA, and civilian science agencies, with recent work including autonomous systems research funded by the Office of Naval Research and defense science grants across Army and Navy organizations. The DAMPER OTA positions the university to translate fundamental materials research into prototype development and potential follow-on manufacturing applications for defense microelectronics applications.
