IRFLEX CORP — Department of Defense SBIR Phase I: N192-067
IRFLEX CORP — 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 $140,000. Cross-check similar awards in the same agency and technology tags for going-rate context.
- Topic code N192-067 links this award to a solicitation family — search the same topic stem for incumbents and recompete timing.

Description
The proposed work will design, model, and demonstrate a proof of concept anti-reflective surface (ARS) on bare and connectorized infrared fiber optic cable assembly. The ARS will provide low Fresnel reflection (<2.5% in the spectral region 1.4 micron to 5 micron, and <1% at a single optimized wavelength) and high LIDT for both pulsed operation (>10 J/cm2 at 10ns pulse widths) and continuous wave operation (>1MW/cm2). The Phase I effort will include prototype plans to be developed under Phase II.
