- Description
- The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) intends to award a contract to FEI, Inc. on the basis of Other Than Full and Open Competition under the authority of 10 USC 2304(c)(1), only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirement. NRL requires an upgrade to its existing NOVA 600 Focused Ion Beam Instrument. System features include (1) an ion column with a liquid Ga+ source. The operating range of the ion column must be at least 2KV to 30KV in order to enable both rapid milling of hard materials, and milling with minimal surface ion beam damage. The spatial resolution of the ion column must be at least 7 nm at an operating voltage of 30kV, so that a thichness tolerance of < 10 nm can be achieved on milled sections. (2) a 16-bit patterning engine for ion beam millilng of arrays of sub-100 nm features. The patterning engine must extend the operating voltage range of the ion column down to 0.5 kV in order to limit the ion beam damage layer silicon samples to < 1 nm. The upgrade also includes delivery and installation, training and documentation, and warranty. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. One or more of the items under this acquisition is subject to the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement and Free Trade Agreements. Other business opportunities for NRL are available at our website http://heron.nrl.navy.mil/contracts/rfplist.htm.
