Lumera Corporation Awarded Contract to Design and Fabricate Polymer Materials

Lumera Corporation, a leader in the field of photonic communications, announced today that it has been awarded a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) phase I Small Business Innovation Research contract in the amount of $98,933 to design and fabricate polymer devices. Upon successful completion of certain milestones, Lumera could receive a subsequent contract in the range of $750,000.

“It is gratifying to see, by this contract award, DARPA’s confidence in our capabilities to develop superior electro-optic polymer materials,” said Dr. Raluca Dinu, Vice President, Electro-Optic Business Unit. “The final goal and end product of the contract will be to economically produce high bandwidth, small chip, stable, low voltage, low loss, ultra linear high EO coefficient polymer directional coupler modulators. We are up to the task and look forward to reaching that objective.”
