Description
The National Institute of Standards and Technology, (NIST) requires a continuous wave, high power (>+8W), narrow linewidth, 532 NM wavelength laser.***The main application for this laser is pumping a frequency stabilized Ti:Sapphire laser. Efficient pumping of the Ti:Sapphire laser requires that the pump laser beam has a TEM00 output mode with M2<1.1. In order to achieve a narrow linewidth from the frequency stablilized Ti:Sapphire laser, the 532 NM pump laser must have low noise. The requirements for this are a power stability of better than 1% and overall noise of less than 0.05% measured with a 10 Hz-100 MHz bandwidth. Evaluation factors include (1) price, (2) power, (3) technical merit specifically applicable to the intended application, including noise measured over a wider bandwidth than is specified above, and (4) applicability of the intended source to other possible applications requiring high power optical pumping at 532 NM. Responses must be specifically address all performance criteria in this solicitation. We request bids on both 8 W and 10 W lasers. It is the government's intention to purchase ONLY one laser.***This acquisition is being conducted under FSR Part 13.1 (NTE $100K) as a BEST VALUE acquisition. FAR provisions are available online at http://www.arnet.gov/far/. This is a combined solicitation/announcement. No separate bid package is available. All technical questions shall be addressed to Rich Mirin at 303 407-7955. This notice shall expire June 10, 2003.
