About the company
Opto-Atomics Corp., an Asian-Pacific American-owned, minority-owned small disadvantaged business based in Torrance, California, develops atom-based sensing and laser technologies for federal research programs as a prime contractor exclusively — all fifteen awards in recent activity are prime contracts or grants with no subcontract footprint. The company competes under total small business set-asides across SBIR Phase I and Phase II awards, STTR Phase I and Phase II awards, and one federal research grant, with firm fixed-price terms across all engagements.
Opto-Atomics' capability portfolio centers on quantum sensing, atomic-based lasers, and precision measurement systems. Representative work includes a $1.274 million NASA Phase II SBIR on atomically-referenced optical wavelength standards (completion August 2028), a $1.7 million Air Force Research Laboratory STTR Phase II on nanoparticle on-demand loading systems (completion September 2027), a $850 thousand NASA Phase II SBIR on cesium atom interferometer laser systems (completion June 2026), and a $225 thousand Shared Services Center Phase I SBIR on quantum Rydberg-atom field transducers (completion March 2027). Earlier-stage work includes a $240 thousand Naval Sea Systems Command Phase I SBIR on atom-based sensor technologies including atom interferometry and magnetometry (awarded November 2024) and multiple $150 thousand NASA Phase I SBIRs covering deployable mini-astrocombs, ultra-narrow bandpass filters, and rugged atomic sensor lasers.
Customer concentration is highly skewed toward NASA. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center accounts for ten of fifteen awards (67% of total count) and $3.4 million of $5.7 million combined potential value (60% of dollars), with the Air Force Research Laboratory providing three awards and $2 million (35% of potential value). The Navy and Department of Energy contribute one award each. The two rankings track identically — NASA leads in both volume and dollars with no tension between them.
Activity has remained modest but steady, oscillating between two and four awards per year from 2023 through 2025, with two awards in 2026 to date. Three awards totaling $3.2 million in combined potential value complete within the next twenty-four months, representing near-term recompete exposure. The vendor operates exclusively in SBIR and STTR research programs and federal research grants, with no presence on IDIQs, GWACs, or agency-wide vehicles. Opto-Atomics has no recorded subcontract relationships in the source data, functioning as a standalone research performer rather than integrator or sub-tier supplier.
