DARPA: Proposals to advance the production of Gradient Index (GRIN) lenses

DARPA invites research proposals to advance the production of Gradient Index (GRIN) lenses from Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 3 to Manufacturing Readiness Level (MRL) 8. Proposed R&D should investigate innovative approaches that enable revolutionary and fundamental advances in the design and fabrication of 3-dimensional GRIN lenses with arbitrary design flexibility for both imaging and non-imaging systems. Eligibility is open; however, there are conditions on FFRDCs and federal government entities. Multiple awards are anticipated. Proposals are due Mar 18.
