- Description
- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Office of Acquisition and Agreements Management (OAAM), Acquisition Management Division (AMD) proposes to enter into a contract on a basis of other than full and open competition for the Physical Measurement Laboratory's (PML) Semiconductor and Dimensional Metrology Division (SDMD). The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition as implemented by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 13.106-1(b). The Acquisition Management Division (AMD) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate a Firm Fixed Price purchase order using Simplified Acquisition Procedures for Commercial Items (FAR Parts 12 and 13) with United Mineral & Chemical Corporation of Lyndhurst, NJ, the sole U.S. Distributor for MBE-Komponenten, for the following items and quantities:  One (1) [SUSI 63-LxxD55] Silicon Sublimation Source.  One (1) [CS 100-63-S-LxxxD93] Water Cooling Shroud.  One (1) [RSM 90-CCW-0.2-SCU-24V] Soft-acting Rotary Shutter Module with control unit.  One (1) [CA-C036-0600] Cable Set for Effusion Cells.  One (1) [CA-C036-0602] Cable Set for Effusion Cells.  One (1) [PS 30-80-C] DC-Power Supply 2400W and PID Controller.  One (1) Filament set SUSI 63. The NIST Semiconductor and Dimensional Metrology Division (SDMD) provides leadership in conducting research in the areas of dimensional, nanometer-scale, surface, and acoustic pressure metrology; accelerometry; silicon Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) technology; MicroElectroMechanical Systems (MEMS); power electronics; nanoelectronics; and flexible/printed electronics. The SDMD's atom based laboratory is developing the capability for fabricating atomic scale devices based on atomically precise lithography and selective dopant placement. The preparation chamber in one of the ultra-high vacuum systems is being modified to incorporate a thin film deposition system for monitoring and controlling the Si sublimation epitaxial overgrowth to encapsulate the dopant layer of phosphorous in silicon. The deposition system will assist in performing epitaxial growth experiments to optimize parameters for quality over layer. The silicon sublimation source intended to be purchased is uniquely capable of fulfilling the Government's minimum requirements for a low deposition rate of less than 0.1nm per minute while meeting the purity requirement of the Si atom vapor source through use of protection shields made of high purity single crystal Si to prevent the introduction of contaminations. MBE Komponenten is the inventor of the SUSI and has the unique capabilities of offering a solid arc of high purity silicon and no crucible is used. The source is operated by a DC power supply and no high voltage equipment is used. Simple and clean operation in UHV systems is guaranteed meeting SDMD's mission requirements. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition 333242, with a size standard of 1500 employees. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, responses received by August 26, 2016 will be considered by the Government.
