The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through FAC 2005-25 and DFARS Change Notice 20080423. The Naval Research Laboratory has a requirement for a tunable UV Laser System to be delivered to the Naval Research Laboratory, Washington, DC 20375 (NRL-DC). The requirements for this acquisition shall include: CLIN 0001 – Laser System, pulsed, tunable, Ultraviolet (UV) with standard commercial documentation such as user's manual and configuration documentation. The Laser System shall beet the following minimum specifications: 1) Minimum tunable spectral range: 240 to 400 nm, 2) Minimum energy/power requirements: (a) for a Q-switched, pulsed laser: 10 micro-Joules minimum pulse energy over specified tuning range, 200 Hz minimum repetition rate, (b) for a mode-locked laser: equivalent power in pulse train, i.e. 2 milli-Watts, over specified tuning range with Q-switch pulse-train burst capability up to 10 microseconds duration (duration either fixed, or variable preferred) (c) Maximum line-width over entire tuning range: 3.0 nm, (d) The standard deviation for pulse energy (or mode-locked burst energy) at any given wavelength shall be less than 15% of the mean pulse-to-pulse or burst-to-burst energy, (e) Wavelength tuning range of 240-400 nm shall be assessable without optics or component replacement or manual realignment, (f) Wavelength tuning control shall be programmable and automated; output wavelength shall be reproducible to less than one tenth (0.1) the laser line-width, (g) Absolute output wavelength shall be less than 1% deviation from set or programmed or designated wavelength, (h) Laser system output shall be stable with temperature and humidity variation, (i) External trigger for Q switch (either laser pulse or mode-locked burst) with less than 50 micro-seconds latency from trigger to laser light is required. Delivery and acceptance is at NRL, 4555 Overlook Ave., S.W., Washington, DC 20375-5320, FOB Destination. Delivery shall be no later than 60 days after contract award.
