Attachment_A_Abstract_Summary_Side_Template.pptx

The file is an Abstract Summary Slide Template for the DARPA-PS-25-27 Rads to Watts Program. The PowerPoint template provides a structured layout for presenters to outline key aspects of their radiation-to-electricity conversion proposal, including sections for concept risks, team approach, and new ideas. The template requires inclusion of a graphic and is marked as source selection information that can only be distributed with an Agreements Officer's authorization.

The associated federal contract opportunity seeks innovative proposals for directly converting radiation energy into electricity through radiovoltaics. DARPA aims to advance technology from milliwatt-level unit cell devices to kilowatt-level power generation over relevant timescales. The solicitation specifically targets revolutionary approaches in radiation-hardened, charge-carrying materials and excludes research focused on incremental improvements or alternative direct conversion methods. Proposals should demonstrate innovative techniques for scaling radiovoltaic unit cells to broad-area collection volumes with high fluence resilience.
