- Description
- SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLICIT A SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT FOR light-weight, high-efficiency flexible, mechanically-stacked solar cell panels that are capable of achieving 40% (or higher) efficiency. The US Naval Research Laboratory intends to procure stacked, multi-junction solar cells to achieve 40% (or higher) electrical conversion efficiency in a flexible array from Semprius, INC. Semprius owns and operates a proprietary transfer-printing process to build concentrator solar cells and panels. The transfer-printing technique is uniquely capable of creating stacked multi-junction solar cells in a flexible array that can attain 40% (or higher) efficiency. The transfer-printing technique is unique because it allows dissimilar semiconductor materials to be placed in intimate, optical and electrical contact to form a single operational device. The Semprius process is also unique in that it is a proven commercial process currently in use to make solar cells. Vendors who feel capable of meeting all the requirements stated above shall, within 15 days after publication of this synopsis, fully identify their interests and submit written data and verifiable documentation that demonstrates conclusively the capabilities of their proposed equipment to meet the stated requirements. Responses received after 15 days or without the required documentation will be determined non-responsive to the synopsis, and will not be considered further.
