This grant, offered by DARPA’s Defense Sciences Office (DSO), is for developing innovative proposals aimed at significantly advancing the performance and capabilities of atomic vapor sensors. The primary purpose is to raise their Technology Readiness Level (TRL) for critical applications such as electric field sensing, imaging, communications, and quantum information science (QIS). DSO seeks revolutionary advances in science, devices, or systems through novel approaches. Research that would only result in evolutionary improvements to existing practices is explicitly excluded, emphasizing the demand for groundbreaking progress in quantum sensing.
