About this opportunity

This Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Langley Research Center provides rationale for awarding a firm fixed price contract to nLIGHT, Inc. for the improvement and delivery of high efficiency 1532 nm pump laser diode modules. The justification cites nLIGHT's proprietary reduced mode diode technology and experience advancing similar diodes for government applications as reasons it is the only contractor capable of meeting the efficiency, power, brightness and packaging requirements for the modules. The contract was awarded on July 6, 2020 to nLIGHT for an estimated $1.5 million to increase the electrical to optical efficiency of existing 1532 nm diodes from 22% to over 40% while maintaining over 35W of optical output power in a housing no larger than 200 cubic centimeters or 600 grams, with prototypes due within 12 months and three space-qualified modules to be delivered within 18 months.
