Aeluma, Inc. had been awarded more than USD 4 million in contracts from the U.S. Government to accelerate scaling of its semiconductor heterogeneous integration platform for quantum and high-speed datacom applications. The awards directly support Aeluma?s commercialization strategy while deepening relationships with government stakeholders and manufacturing partners. Scaling wafer production and fabrication with Tower Semiconductor and Sumitomo Chemical Advanced Technology further positions Aeluma at the forefront of high-growth markets across AI infrastructure, defense, and quantum.

The new contracts will accelerate the development and transition of Aeluma?s heterogeneous integration platform for quantum dot lasers and quantum nonlinear materials. The new contracts aim to advance the quantum dot and quantum nonlinear photonic platforms through targeted demonstrations and scaling efforts. This includes development at Aeluma?s facility in Goleta, California, as well as activities with supply chain partners including Tower Semiconductor and Sumitomo Chemical Advanced Technology.
