Domestic Manufacturing of Large Area Raman Laser Materials

Description: The Department of the Navy seeks scalable domestic manufacturing processes for large Raman-active optical crystals to enable wavelength-agile laser systems for naval applications. The prototype should support high-throughput production of large-aperture crystals, reduce reliance on precious-metal crucibles, and meet specified size, damage-threshold, and optical-quality targets. Phase I work is to develop and model the crystal-growth approach, evaluate optical characterization and scale-up feasibility, and provide a Phase II development plan.

Domestic Scalable Growth Of Large-Format Pixelated CZT Crystals For Advanced Radiation Detection
The Defense Threat Reduction Agency seeks a reliable, scalable domestic source and fabrication process for large-format pixelated cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) crystals used in room-temperature gamma imaging and spectroscopy. The topic calls for improvements to crystal growth and machining, traceable U.S. or allied-nation raw-material sourcing, and validation of crystal quality and performance for scalable production. This SBIR topic is pre-released, proposals are scheduled to open on December 2, 2026, and are due January 6, 2027.
