\nFunding Would Advance Company\u2019s Scalable Non-InP Substrate Technology for AI Datacom to Address Supply Chain Constraints
\n<\/h2>\n
\n

GOLETA, Calif., July 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Aeluma, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALMU), a semiconductor company specializing in high-performance, scalable technologies for mobile, AI, defense and aerospace, robotics, automotive, AR\/VR, and quantum, today announced that it has signed a letter of intent (LOI) for up to $30 million of proposed funding under the CHIPS and Science Act, which is administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce. The award will support Research & Development of Aeluma\u2019s scalable, non-InP semiconductor manufacturing platform for photonics, an important technology for the U.S. economy and national security.\u00a0<\/p>\n

CHIPS funding is designed to advance semiconductor R&D, strengthen U.S. technology leadership, and accelerate the pace of commercialization to enable technology dominance in the industries of the future. Scalable manufacturing of compound semiconductors is critical to AI, advanced computing, and other applications. Aeluma\u2019s non-InP, large-diameter substrate platform addresses supply chain constraints and enables the scaling of photonic components such as high-speed photodetectors and lasers. These technologies will accelerate domestic production for next generation AI interconnects, network communications, and sensing.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are pleased to be one of the companies selected to receive an LOI for funding to support the AI and advanced computing ecosystem in the U.S.,\u201d said Jonathan Klamkin, Ph.D., Aeluma\u2019s President and CEO. \u201cThis award aims to accelerate development and commercialization of our scalable, high-performance semiconductor platform, leveraging Aeluma\u2019s facilities in Goleta, California, and partner sites within the U.S. With growing demand for photonics in AI and advanced computing infrastructure, Aeluma is poised for broad market adoption of our innovative technology solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWith today\u2019s compute supply chain investments, the Trump Administration is accelerating America\u2019s innovation engine,\u201d said Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick. \u201cThese strategic investments will enhance our country\u2019s domestic capabilities, create high-paying jobs and keep America at the forefront of the semiconductor industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe CHIPS R&D incentives will support a breakthrough in manufacturing of photonic devices for compute and communication networks,\u201d said Bill Frauenhofer, the Executive Director for Semiconductor Innovation and Investment at the Department of Commerce. \u201cAccelerating R&D for next generation substrates for domestic photonic devices provides American industry the extreme bandwidth and energy efficiency to scale complex AI workloads.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aeluma pioneered a platform to build high-performance photonics on large-diameter, mismatched substrates up to 300mm in size. This game-changing technology bridges compound semiconductor materials with mainstream microelectronics to meet the scaling requirements of high growth markets. The funded initiatives would accelerate commercialization of Aeluma\u2019s high-performance semiconductors for the AI and advanced computing markets. InP substrates are used for manufacturing critical photonic components, but these substrates are relatively expensive, limited in manufacturing throughput, and subject to geopolitics and supply shortages. Aeluma leverages alternative, larger diameter substrates to build high-performance photonics. The development contemplated in the LOI emphasizes manufacturing readiness and scaling of Aeluma\u2019s non-InP photonics, aligning with the U.S. CHIPS and Science Act objectives to strengthen domestic semiconductor manufacturing, supply chain resiliency, and national security.<\/p>\n

The award is subject to the completion of further due diligence, required approvals, including internal approvals of the U.S. Government, and the parties\u2019 execution of definitive award documents. The LOI contemplates a portion of the award being funded up front and the remainder funded on a milestone-based award structure tied to eligible project costs and technical progress.<\/p>\n

Any securities issued to the U.S. Department of Commerce in connection with the proposed award will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may be issued only pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of that Act. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of Aeluma, nor shall there be any sale of such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction. In connection with executing final award documents, Aeluma would issue equity securities to the U.S. Department of Commerce with an aggregate value equal to the award amount.<\/p>\n
