Award economics. The award range on file is $1 -- $6,750,000. Cost sharing is not required, so applicants do not need to commit matching funds to be competitive on this opportunity. Federal award ranges are often upper bounds; actual allocations reflect program appropriations, the strength of the applicant pool, and the evaluation committee's scoring.

Deadline and action path. This opportunity closed on June 20, 2023. Future funding cycles may be published under the same CFDA number, so monitoring the parent program page is the most reliable way to catch re-announcements. Every Grants.gov submission requires an active SAM.gov registration and a Unique Entity ID. Review the Eligibility section below carefully, federal eligibility categories (nonprofit, state or local government, tribal, individual, educational institution, small business) have distinct registration and reporting requirements. Pre-application outreach to the listed agency contact is permitted and often welcomed, it helps clarify scope and scoring priorities. Before acting on the deadline or award figures above, verify them directly on the official Grants.gov listing, amendments can change dates and amounts after this page was last refreshed.

Description

The Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), in collaboration with the Laboratory for Physical Sciences (LPS), is soliciting proposals for the “Materials characterization and Quantum performance: Correlation and causation” (MQC) program. This program takes a “materials-first” approach to improving stability and reproducibility of state-of-the-art quantum bits (qubits). MQC focuses on solid-state qubits, for use in gate-based quantum computing, built from semiconductor- and superconductor material systems. Of particular interest are Si-based gate defined quantum dots or Josephson junction-based quantum circuits . More specifically, the goal of the research to-be-funded under this FOA is to identify correlations between qubit performance metrics and material properties, where the main focus is on identifying material properties which can be characterized in a high throughput and precise manner. In addition, an equally important goal is to identify the underlying physical mechanisms giving rise to these correlations. These mechanisms shall be supported by detailed material characterization measurements as well as material micro-structure and device modeling efforts.

Eligibility

Grants.gov lists this opportunity under eligibility category code 25. These codes correspond to applicant types (state/local government, tribal organization, nonprofit, educational institution, individual, small business, etc.) defined in Grants.gov's own eligibility reference.
