    Brief

    The AWE is establishing a Master Framework Agreement to identify and qualify suppliers capable of providing frequency conversion crystal modules for the Orion laser system. The modules must convert high-power 30-nanosecond laser pulses from 1053 nm (infrared) to 351 nm (ultraviolet) using the third harmonic. Each module will integrate a doubler and tripler within a single cell assembly featuring a 322 mm clear aperture and must meet specifications for use in advanced high-energy laser applications. This framework agreement seeks suppliers with demonstrated technical expertise in nonlinear optics, precision crystal engineering, and high-power laser component manufacturing.
