- Description
- The Department of Commerce (DOC), the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the Material Measurement Laboratory's Materials Measurement Science Division (MMSD) conducts research on the development of innovative metrologies and measurement protocols for micro/nano-scale heterosystems analysis. Measurement techniques are used to determine sample composition as well as structural, electronic, and chemical properties of a wide variety of organic, inorganic and biomolecular systems where materials of interest are typically present as either micro/nano-scale features or monolayer/multilayer films. To meet mission requirements; the MMSD needs to procure an upgrade to its existing particle luminescence spectroscopy system to perform UV microscopy measurements with user supplied custom software and hardware components. The detector system must be fully compatible with a Princeton Instruments ProEM: 1600x200B_eXcelon 3 EMCCD Camera System and yield optimal imaging/spectral characteristics with the detector system with respect to the existing hardware and software. Princeton Instruments of Trenton, NJ, is the exclusive manufacturer. NIST has a need for a particle luminescence spectroscopy system detector upgrade that would meet the following: Princeton Instruments ProEM: 1600x200B_eXcelon 3 EMMCCD Camera System: 1. Shall be software compatible with Princeton Instruments WinSpec and WinView acquisition platforms. 2. Shall provide a scientific grade, back-illuminated, CCD with 1600x200 pixels, 16x16um pixels (25.6mm x 3.2mm image area); with thermoelectric Peltier cooling, with 16-bit dual EMCCD and Normal CCD readout ports (6.67 MHz to 100 kHz), Unichrome UV coating for back-illuminated CCDs, and with Gigabit ethernet (GigE) data interface. 3. Requires no contractor installation. It is NIST's intent to sole source the requirement to: Princeton Instruments. The NAICS code is: 334516. It is anticipated that one purchase order will be issued. This is not a Request for Quotes. Sources interested in this requirement must provide a statement of capabilities in sufficient detail to determine if the requirements of this synopsis can be met. Responses must be in writing and must be received within seven (7) calendar days from the date of this notice. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed contract based on responses from this notice is soley within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered soley for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. No phone calls will be accepted.
