- Description
- JOFOC T&C This notice is a Notice of Intent. The Government intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Spectra Physics. This acquisition will be made in accordance with the format in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 12.6 "Streamlined Procedures for Evaluation and solicitation for commercial Items," as applicable, and as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are not being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Submit offers on NOI-RML-D-1860628. This acquisition is a Notice of Intent (NOI). The solicitation documents and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC)2005-95 dated 1/13/2017. The North American Industry Classification System code for this procurement is 334516 with a small business size standard of 1000. This requirement is not set aside for small business. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), is seeking to purchase an Insight X3 Dual Tunable Femtosecond laser with the following options. Third generation broadly tunable femtosecond laser with DeepSee dispersion compensation and dual wavelength output InSight X3 Dual features an unprecedented 680 nm to 1300 nm continuous tuning from a sole source, short 100 fs pulse widths and the highest peak power levels in the infrared wavelengths where imaging penetration depth is maximized. > 1.0 W @ 700 nm > 2.0 W @ 900 nm > 1.8 W @ 1000 nm > 1.6 W @ 1100 nm > 1.4 W @ 1200 nm > 1.0 W @ 1300 nm > 2.0 W @ 1045 nm (Dual Beam) Spectra-Physics' integrated patented DeepSee, the industry standard dispersion pre-compensator, delivers the short pulses through a microscope to the sample for maximum fluorescence. This fully automated ultrafast laser can be seamlessly tuned with the click of a mouse to any wavelength within seconds at speeds over 50 nm/sec. Includes the 1045nm Dual wavelength option for dual color imaging, CARS and SRS Includes rack mountable power supply, chiller, and rack accessory. MAITAI EHPDS Completely automated, one-box, mode-locked Ti: Sapphire laser source with automated DeepSee dispersion compensation. Key features: • Wide Tuning Range: 690-1040 nm • Pulse duration < 70 fsec • Completely CPU controlled with user-friendly Graphical User Interface (GUI) •Industry-leading peak power: >425 kW at 800 nm o >56 kW at 690 nm o >217 kW at 710 nm o >217 kW at 920 nm o >34 kW at 1040 nm • Patented DeepSee module provides high negative Group Velocity Dispersion at all wavelengths providing shortest pulses and most fluorescence at the sample • Superior beam pointing stability of <50 μrad/100 nm eliminates need to realign external routing optics for optimum microscope throughput at every wavelength. • Unique active mode-locking technology enables: o Continuous wavelength tuning with no re-optimization time o Real-time excitation fingerprinting in seconds o Drop-out free operation • Laser incorporates on-board diagnostics for Remote Service Capability • Includes rack mountable power supply, chiller, and rack accessory.
