Description

This opportunity is for companies interested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture, and market NASA's new source array technology, which aims to revolutionize quantum communication by addressing the unwanted production of multiple entangled photon pairs. The technology has potential applications in cybersecurity, finance, and advanced computing. • The new source array generates single pairs of entangled photons at a high rate while inhibiting the production of multiple pairs. • This innovation reduces noise in quantum systems, increasing the successful qubit transmission rate by a factor of 10 to 100. • The technology is available for licensing and development into a commercial product. • Companies can express interest by submitting a license application through NASA's Automated Technology Licensing Application System (ATLAS).

Budget estimate

$100,000 – $1,000,000

The budget for this opportunity is difficult to estimate, as it is a licensing agreement and not a traditional contract. However, considering the potential applications of the technology in cybersecurity, finance, and advanced computing, the licensing fees could be substantial. A rough estimate could be in the range of $100,000 to $1 million per year, depending on the terms of the license agreement and the company's ability to commercialize the technology. Factors that may influence the payment range include the company's experience in quantum technology, the size of the market, and the competition.
