DARPA – Perrseus – DARPA-PS-26-127 DARPA – Perrseus – DARPA-PS-26-127 DARPA’s Multi X Office is seeking innovative proposals that enable compact cold-atom devices and environmentally-decoupled ultra-high Q microelectromechanical (MEMS) and photonics devices through microscale ultra-high-vacuum systems (µUHV).
Perrseus will develop architectures and processes for µUHV (<10 -10 mbar) packages and demonstrate this architecture through the integration of pressure sensors (10 -3 mbar to <10 -10 mbar) consisting of cold-atom neutral/ion quantum sensors, MEMS, and photonic sensors. Perrseus will develop µUHV packages that simultaneously meet the needs of the MEMS, photonics, and quantum sensing communities.
To achieve the required improvement from 10 -3 mbar to < 10 ‑10 mbar in a 5 mL package, performers will have to fundamentally rethink the vacuum packaging architecture, the manufacturing process, the vacuum system components, and prototype new process workflows that simplify fabrication and maintain compatibility across MEMS, photonics, and quantum sensing.
Perrseus is a 42-month program divided into two technical phases, preceded by a security preparation phase if applicable. Phase 0 – Security Preparation (if required) – up to 3 months; preparation of cybersecurity and administrative readiness for handling of Controlled Unclassified Information (CMMC Level 2).
Phase 1 – Process Development – 24 months; base period; demonstrating key elements for the process development of a µUHV system including methodology for measuring the pressure over the entire operational range. Phase 2 – µUHV Demonstration – 18 months; option period; demonstrating a µUHV system at manufacturing scale and demonstrating the µUHV system lifetime. Abstracts (strongly encouraged but not mandatory) are due 3 August 2026.

DARPA's DICE program (HR001126S0010) wants the theory and algorithms for a self-organizing collective of AI agents that stays on mission in contested environments with no central controller. It is a 36-month, simulation-only, three-technical-area BAA due August 25, 2026 — and it rewards a rare blend of distributed-systems theory and frontier-model inference control that almost no single lab has under one roof. Here is what DICE is really asking for, who is positioned to win, and how to build a team that can.
Read articleDPA26BZ06-DV023 is a Direct-to-Phase-II SBIR paying $700,000 over 18 months plus a $500,000 option. The physics demands 256x more transmit power than the systems that qualify you to compete, and DARPA will not accept modeling alone as proof. Here is the eligibility wall, the five engineering problems, and who can realistically win it before the October 21 close.
