Solid-State Energy Conversion from Heat to Electricity Request for Information (RFI)

Description: The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s Defense Sciences Office is requesting information on the state of the art and technological limitations of solid-state systems that convert heat directly into electricity. It seeks information about achievable performance across operating temperatures, factors that limit performance, and promising applications for these systems. This active RFI is intended to inform potential future research and development programs; it is listed as a Sources Sought contract opportunity, not a grant program.
