Materials and Chemical Sciences Research for Quantum Information Science: The DOE SC program in Basic Energy Sciences (BES) announces its interest in receiving applications from single investigators/small groups (up to $500K per year) and from large teams (over $500K per year) for support of experimental and theoretical efforts to advance materials and chemical sciences research for quantum information science (QIS). Large teams must have multiple investigators and may have multiple institutions. This FOA is the second in this topical area for BES. In FY 2018, BES funded 27 awards under similar FOA. Additional information on these awards can be found at the websites listed in Supplementary Information. This funding opportunity supports fundamental research for public benefit in materials and chemical sciences to advance our understanding of quantum phenomena in systems that could be used for QIS, and the use of quantum computing in chemical and materials sciences research. Applications must focus on the Priority Research Opportunities for experimental and theoretical research identified in the BES Roundtable Reports, Basic Energy Sciences Roundtable on Opportunities for Quantum Computing in Chemical and Materials Sciences or Basic Energy Sciences Roundtable on Opportunities for Basic Research for Next-Generation Quantum Systems (https://science.energy.gov/~/media/bes/pdf/reports/2018/Quantum_computing.pdf and https://science.energy.gov/~/media/bes/pdf/reports/2018/Quantum_systems.pdf). Additional information on each topical area follows.

- Applicants Eligible for this Grant
- Unrestricted (i.e., open to any type of entity below), subject to any clarification in text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility"
- Additional Information on Eligibility
- All types of applicants are eligible to apply, except Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC) Contractors, and nonprofit organizations described in section 501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 that engaged in lobbying activities after December 31, 1995. DOE National Laboratories and other Federal agencies are not eligible to receive financial assistance awards under this FOA, but they may be proposed as subawards to be paid separately. A parallel, companion announcement (LAB 19-2054) is available for applications led by DOE laboratories, including DOE/NNSA FFRDC Contractors. Applicants that are not domestic organizations should be advised that: • Individual applicants are unlikely to possess the skills, abilities, and resources required to successfully accomplish the objectives of this FOA. Individual applicants are encouraged to address this concern in their applications and to demonstrate how they will accomplish the objectives of this FOA. • Non-domestic applicants are advised that successful applications from non-domestic applicants must include a detailed demonstration of how the applicant possesses skills, resources, and abilities that do not exist among potential domestic applicants. Applications from for-profit organizations that propose research related to current commercial activity may be declined without merit review.
