- Description
- In many experiments on metals, nanomaterials, composites etc, being carried out by researchers and students at NPS (specifically in MAE and Physics) samples for analysis require analysis by x-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques for assessing the identity of the phases, their crystal structure, lattice constants, crystallite size and strain. This equipment is heavily used in MS2201, MS3202 and MS4312 (as well as the solid state physics classes offered by Physics Department) in their laboratory courses. Many MAE and Physics students routinely use XRD as one of the materials characterization techniques in their research work for their thesis projects. The equipment currently in use (PANalytical XRD). MAE were purchased several years ago (before 1995) and is obsolete and even the manufacturer is unable to provide parts and the electronics have changed tremendously. The current PANalytical XRD was down for several months due to the difficulty of obtaining proper parts. The procurement of a new, desktop x-ray diffractometer will allow for our laboratory courses and student thesis research to be fully supported. PLEASE SEE THE RFQ FOR THE LIST OF REQUIREMENTS. Offerors questions shall be submitted no later than 5:00 PM PST 02 June 2014, the government will provide a response no later than 06 June 2014, and the proposal shall be submitted no later than 5:00 PM PST 11 June 2014 and shall be valid for 60 days.
