nLIGHT Awarded $86 Million Contract to Develop High Energy Laser<\/b><\/p>\n

Development Supported by U.S. Department of Defense\u2019s HELSI Program<\/i><\/p>\n

CAMAS, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nnLIGHT, Inc. (Nasdaq: LASR), a leading provider of high-power semiconductor and fiber lasers, today announced that it has been awarded an $86 million contract to produce a High Energy Laser (HEL) prototype for the next phase of development in support of the U.S. Department of Defense\u2019s (DoD) High Energy Laser Scaling Initiative (HELSI).<\/p>\n

\nThe Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research & Engineering selected nLIGHT in 2019 to utilize its coherent beam combined (CBC) architecture to produce a 300 kW class high energy laser as part of the first phase of the HELSI program. In 2022, nLIGHT demonstrated power exceeding HELSI program objectives and the scalability of our CBC architecture.<\/p>\n

\nToday\u2019s award is part of a multi-year development program that is expected to commence in the third calendar quarter of 2023.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWhen we founded nLIGHT over 20 years ago, our vision was to produce the highest power and brightness lasers by leveraging vertical integration from semiconductor laser chips through beam control,\u201d commented Scott Keeney, CEO of nLIGHT. \u201cThis contract award reflects nLIGHT\u2019s deep commitment to the defense market and our ability to combine our leading technology with the benefits of high-volume commercial laser operations to deliver innovative and cost-effective directed energy lasers.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWe are thrilled to have the continued support of the HELSI program to develop and further demonstrate our CBC technology and innovative beam combination and control,\u201d commented Jeff Barchers, President of nLIGHT DEFENSE Systems. \u201cOur technology is capable of scaling to higher powers and providing higher performance, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with the DoD.\u201d<\/p>\n
