Raytheon Wins Air Force Contract to Develop Domestic Thin Film Lithium Niobate Production

Raytheon, a business of RTX Corporation, has been awarded a contract by the Air Force Research Laboratory to develop a domestic production capability for thin film lithium niobate (TFLN) wafers. The initiative aims to decrease reliance on foreign sources for this material, which is used in high-speed communications and advanced sensing systems. Raytheon will collaborate with G&H to establish manufacturing processes, with production expected to transition to G&H in early 2026.
