- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Andor Technology, of South Windsor, Connecticut for one (1) each: Deep Depletion Charge Coupled Device (CCD) Camera Detector System, System Controller card, Software Developers Kit, and External Power Supply. The CCD Detector System will be used by NIST’s Process Measurements Division (PMD) to detect Raman scattered radiation from compound semiconductors and other weakly scattering materials. The detection of weak Raman scattered radiation is critical for the measurement of materials properties of importance to PMD research. ***Sole Source determination is based on the need for the CCD Camera System sensors to have enhanced (relative to non-deep depletion CCD sensors) spectral response in the 700 nm to 1100 nm wavelength range and to have etalon fringe pattern suppression performed during sensor fabrication. It is essential that the fringe suppression be performed during chip fabrication in order to assure maximum uniformity of etalon fringe pattern suppression over the entire chip. It is imperative to NIST’s research to be able to detect weak Raman signals that could masked by non-uniform fringe patterns. Andor Technology is the only known vendor who can supply a CCD camera system that performs etalon fringe suppression during chip fabrication. ***Delivery shall be FOB Destination, Gaithersburg, MD, and is required within 60 days after receipt of order. ***The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334516, and the size standard is 500 employees. ***No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, the Government will consider responses received by May 7, 2003. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
