In accordance with the non-manufacturer rule, the contractor shall be a small business under the applicable size standard and shall provide either its own product or that of another domestic small business manufacturing or processing concern. See FAR 19.102(f) for additional information. Background: The Quantum Measurement Division of the National Institute of Standards and Technology needs diode laser systems for projects on various quantum information manipulation protocols involving cold atom and warm atom trapping experiments in support of the Division's efforts in quantum information manipulation. All optical gated operation with weak light fields is one of the center building blocks for quantum information manipulation. The laser systems required here will enable the Quantum Optics Group to test various gated operation protocols using the combination of cold and warm atomic vapors, and provide technical support to the quantum information manipulation initiative of the Division. All offerors shall provide a quotation for the following line items: Line Item 0001: One high-power 780 nm diode laser system SEE ATTACHED REQUEST FOR QUOTES.
