Aeluma, Inc. announced that it has been awarded funding from the U.S. Office of Secretary of Defense to develop foundry-scale, CMOS-compatible quantum materials. Aeluma recently announced two wins to apply its technology to defense and aerospace applications. These achievements are important for recognition purposes, as well as the revenue they generate for Aeluma.

While the company continues to market to large-volume, emerging commercial applications including automotive and mobile, these early awards hint at other potential large-scale applications of its ground-breaking technology. The award announced focuses on quantum and communication applications, with particular emphasis on scaling to be compatible with large-diameter substrates and CMOS manufacturing, themes that are central to Aeluma's pioneering technology.
