RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC. — Department of Defense SBIR Phase I: SBIR PHASE I, TOPIC NUMBER O254-009, FARADAY OPTICAL ISOLATOR ON A PHOTONIC INTEGRATED LAS

RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC. — SBIR Phase I award from Department of Defense.

Phase I SBIR feasibility signal

  • Phase I awards fund proof-of-concept work. For capture teams, they mark early interest from Department of Defense in a technical approach.
  • Watch for Phase II follow-ons from the same firm/topic family — that conversion path is where budgets and transition pressure rise.
  • Obligated amount $300,519. Cross-check similar awards in the same agency and technology tags for going-rate context.
  • Tagged technology areas: Microelectronics. Follow those hubs for open topics and peer winners in the same cluster.

Informational capture context from public federal data — not legal or bid advice.

Summary

Radiation Monitoring Devices received this Army SBIR Phase I award to develop a compact Faraday optical isolator built directly on a photonic integrated laser circuit. The work aims to protect laser systems from disruptive back-reflections in a small, integrated package suitable for defense use.
