Description
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) proposes to negotiate on a sole source basis a contract under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1) with NP Photonics, 9030 S. Rita Road, Suite 120, Tucson, AZ 85747 for a special-purpose, high power, narrow linewidth, fiber laser for DARPA tasks and projects. The laser, with controller, shall meet the following specifications: Wavelength: 1552.75nm single wavelength Laser output power: 1 W with 2nd feed output of 5mW (PM fiber output w.FC/APC connector) Spectral linewidth: <3KHz Relative Intensity Noise: <-110dB/Hz, and <-152dB/Hz at f>50MHz Wavelength Tuning: 20GHz Piezo Tuning: +/-100 MHz Output Isolation: >25 dB This requirement is for a fiber laser that produces at least 1W output power at a single wavelength and very narrow spectral linewidth (<3KHz) as well as very low RIN noise. Such a laser is only commercially available from NP Photonics at this time. Based upon a search of all laser manufacturers, through product literature and an on-line search no other supplier meets all the specifications required. This procurement is being conducted per FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures (Under $100,000). This synopsis is issued for information purposes. Questions should be submitted in writing to the contracting officer either by fax or email. Information submitted in response to this notice will be used solely to determine whether or not use of competitive procedures to fulfill this requirement would be in the Government's best interest and must address qualifications pertinent to this requirement. Anticipated award date will be July 17, 2006.
