Description
The Air Force Laboratory, Directorate of Contracting, Kirtland AFB, New Mexico on behalf of the Phillips Laboratory Space Component Technology Branch, Kirtland AFB, NM intends to a award a sole source contract to Boeing Corporation for all required personnel, equipment and materials to explore novel space-based solar array concepts using quantum dot frequency conversion technology by performing analysis, rapid prototyping and certification through measurements. The Government anticipates the estimated cost of this effort to be approximately $300K. REQUIREMENTS: This procurement will develop frequency conversion waveguides designed to increase solar cell efficiency by shifting and optimizing the spectrum of the light for photovoltaic solar cells. The Offeror shall be required to design a waveguide/solar cell system to result in high efficiency for AMO solar to electric power conversion. Demonstrate the array-level feasibility of using frequency conversion and determine theoretical efficiency limits for the waveguide/solar cell design. Build prototype of frequency conversion waveguide. Deliver one solar array design, one light conversion feasibility study, and one waveguide within a ten month period of performance. Respondents are required to provide sufficient information concerning their ability to fulfill the above requirements within the ten month period in order for the project office to make a determination that the requirements can be met. A draft program plan as well as the resumes of key personnel must also be included in the response.
