About this opportunity
Office of the Secretary of Defense SBIR topic — under DoW SBIR 2026 BAA (Solicitation 26.BZ, Release 5) — Accepting submissions 2026-08-26 to 2026-09-23. Objective: Develop, demonstrate, and implement a prototype functional tool with non-destructive, quick-turn, full-wafer screening capability to assess surface damage during the fabrication of small-pixel infrared detector arrays. Description: The Department of War has a rapidly increasing demand for large-format, small-pixel FPAs to support advanced sensor platforms across Ground, air, maritime, and space domains. To keep pace with ongoing advancements in C-MOS digital-in-pixel Read-Out Integrated Circuits (ROICs) and to produce next-generation infrared sensors, fabrication processes must consistently yield exceptionally high-quality dete...
