1. Program Background The Perrseus program will develop architectures and processes for µUHV (<10-10 mbar) packages and demonstrate this architecture through the integration of pressure sensors (10-3 mbar to <10-10 mbar) consisting of cold-atom neutral/ion quantum sensors, MEMS, and photonic sensors. While there has been progress in the development of compact ultra-high vacuum systems, these are typically hand-built, one-off demonstrations incompatible with volume manufacturing or low Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) devices. Perrseus will reinvent the underlying manufacturing processes to overcome these challenges by considering competing requirements and potential interplay between the housing materials, bonding process, electrical/optical interconnects, atomic sources, active/passive pumps, and measurement techniques. Critical to housing development will be ensuring compatibility across atomic, MEMS, and photonic tooling and materials.

2. Project Overview

This section is focused on defining the specific project and should include a description that aligns with the technical proposal. Though not meant to be extensive (usually two to three paragraphs will suffice), it should capture: (1) what is the project about; (2) why it matters; (3) goals and objectives; (4) Government and performer defined metrics.

3. Technical Tasks & Deliverables

This section should clearly and accurately identify the tasks and deliverables associated with the proposed effort. Each (sub)task must identify the technical goals and approach, start and end dates in program months, responsible person(s) and their organization(s), and contribution to program milestones, deliverables, and/or metrics. Please do not copy/paste charts or images into this section. Details on deliverable format or specific content should be contained here (versus the Milestone Plan Document). Tasks and deliverables must be delineated by Phase.

The Performer shall accomplish the below described research tasks.

4. Program Management

This Section should include any applicable program management tasks (to include subcontractor management, status reports, final report/s, etc.).

5. Meeting & Travel Requirements

This Section can be utilized for any required meeting and travel requirements from the Program Solicitation.

6. Government Furnished Information (GFI)/Government Furnished Property (GFP)

This Section can be utilized to capture any assumptions regarding GFI/GFP. Anything contained here would need to be reconciled with the GFP Article in the final Agreement.
