MAGNOLIA OPTICAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. — National Aeronautics and Space Administration SBIR Phase II: HIGH-SENSITIVITY UV SOLID-STATE PHOTON-COUNTING DEVICES AND ARRAYS
MAGNOLIA OPTICAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. — SBIR Phase II award from National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
Phase II SBIR prototype / development signal
- Phase II is where National Aeronautics and Space Administration funds deeper R&D after feasibility. Incumbents with Phase II history are serious competitors on adjacent topics.
- Use this award as past-performance context and to map customer organizations for STRATFI/TACFI-style transition planning.
- Obligated amount $849,994 is consistent with substantial Phase II-scale effort; compare to related awards from the same agency.
- Tagged technology areas: Sensors & Sensor Fusion, Space & Satellite, Microelectronics. Follow those hubs for open topics and peer winners in the same cluster.
Summary
Magnolia Optical Technologies received nearly $850k from NASA to develop advanced solid-state devices that detect faint ultraviolet light by counting individual photons. The Phase II project focuses on creating highly sensitive UV sensors and arrays suitable for space applications.
