ADVALUE PHOTONICS INC — Department of Defense SBIR Phase I: AF191-053
ADVALUE PHOTONICS 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 $148,900. Cross-check similar awards in the same agency and technology tags for going-rate context.
- Topic code AF191-053 links this award to a solicitation family — search the same topic stem for incumbents and recompete timing.

Description
Over the past several years, AdValue Photonics has developed a proprietary fiber laser technology, enabling >1mJ pulse energy generation of transform-limited-linewidth laser pulses from all-fiber-format robust laser systems at multiple wavelength bands (1ï�m, 1.55ï�m, and 2ï�m). In this SBIR program, we will develop an eye-safe all-fiber laser illuminator for coherent 3D imaging and vibration imaging, which will be able to emit well-tailored laser pulses of transform-limited linewidth with >1mJ of pulse energy at a rep rate of > 10kHz. A the end of this SBIR program, we’ll demonstrate an eye-safe all-fiber mJ-pulse-energy laser illuminator with a maximum average output power more than 20W.
