Monolithic Graphene-CMOS Broadband Focal Plane Arrays close tomorrow as the Department of War seeks a wafer-scale array for low-light target detection across UV to LWIR wavelengths. Expeditionary Solar Refinery closes tomorrow as the Department of War wants a lightweight solar system that makes methanol fuel for soldier power sustainment. Two requirements close within seven days and five more close within thirty, creating tight deadline pressure this week. The Department of Defense leads open demand with seven active requirements, followed by the Department of War with two and the Department of Energy with one. Upcoming opportunities include an Air Force BAA on space environment in nine days, DARPA HUBBLE in sixteen days, and DARPA Firefox in twenty days.
