59 -- UPGRADE MICROELECTRONIC CHIP SOL N00173-00-Q-0085 POC Darlene Copp, Contracting Officer, 202-767-2374 E-MAIL: Click here to contact contracting officer via e-mail, SolQnA@labmis.nrl.navy.mil. Naval Research Laboratory intends to solicit and negotiate with Raytheon Infrared Center of Excellence on other than full and open competitive basis to procure services to Upgrade one microelectronic chip design (Thin Film Analog Image Processor, TAIP). Raytheon will plan and support engineering changes to the existing TAIP design so as to minimize existing problems. Coordinate the fabrication of new mask sets and related wafer processing at the silicon foundry. Post-process the wafer returned from the foundry so they are ready for deposition of polmer layers (to be performed by other sites as directed by DARPA). Finally, provide supporting documentation for all activities performed. "See Note(s) 22." Posted 05/31/00 (W-SN460084). (0152)
