The Office of Naval Research's Functional Polymeric and Organic Materials program is focused on exploring the inherent strengths/properties of organic and polymeric materials to bring new capability to the Navy.

The Office of Naval Research's Extraordinary Materials for Extreme Conditions program aims to support basic and applied research efforts to design, discover and develop novel materials/structures with unique properties (Physical, Mechanical and Chemical etc.) for extreme operating conditions through employing traditional as well as novel - synthesis routes, processing, characterization techniques and modeling/simulation tools.

The Organic Photovoltaics program is part of the Office of Naval Research's Sea Warfare and Weapons Department.

The Office of Naval Research's Polymer Matrix Composites (PMC) program has invested significantly in developing new structural fibers with better thermo-oxidative resistance, new non-toxic resins systems and sandwich cores with enhanced resistance to fire and its propagation, new additives to improve PMC inter-laminar properties, and new resin infusion models and processing tools for improving product quality and lowering manufacturing costs.

The Office of Naval Research's Propulsion Materials program involves, in part, the kinetics and thermodynamics of materials interactions and materials stability under marine operating environments and temperatures.

The Office of Naval Research's Structural Metals program emphasizes developing the fundamental understanding needed to discover, design, and produce high-performance structural metals.

The Office of Naval Research's Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning for Photonics, Power & Energy, Atmospherics, and Quantum Science program is focused on machine learning techniques that can be applied to photonics, power and energy, thermal management and controls, atmospherics, communication, and quantum science for improved naval capabilities.

The Navy ManTech program responds to naval needs for the production and repair of platforms, systems and equipment.

Managed within the Office of Naval Research (ONR), the Navy ManTech Program sponsors projects and develops enabling manufacturing technology, such as new processes and equipment, for DoD weapon system production lines that deliver the highest impact manufacturing technology to benefit the fleet when implemented.

The Navy ManTech Program Investment Strategy concentrates ManTech investments on reducing both the acquisition and life-cycle costs of key Navy acquisition programs.
