The National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST) seeks information on vendors that can provide one (1) EasyQCL-200 System (or equal), and associated components listed in the attached Statement of Work (SOW). The Sources and Detectors Group is engaged in constructing novel sensor systems and requires a THz Quantum Cascade Laser to perform absolute reflectance measurements of microscopic carbon nanotube coatings in support of calibrations and remote-sensing research activities. The acquisition will allow NIST researchers to characterize carbon nanotube detectors at THz frequencies which would enhance current capabilities.
Please review the attached SOW for specific details to meet all Government requirements. The purpose of this notice is to identify organizations capable of providing the necessary items and meeting the minimum contractor qualifications.
This announcement is not a Request for Proposals or Quote (RFP/RFQ) and does not commit the Government to award a contract now or in the future.
