- ***The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Photonic Microdevices, Inc. *** ***The purchase of an automated wet processing tool is required for installation in the clean room facility at the Center for Nanoscale Science & Technology (CNST) located on the campus of the National Institute of Standards & Technology, Gaithersburg, MD. The processing tool will add needed capability in the area of photomask processing and support our laser pattern generator system currently installed in the facility. The system shall be designed for use in a multi-user based research and development clean room laboratory operating at a class 100 cleanliness level.*** *Photonic Microdevices, Inc. is the sole provider of this unique piece of equipment. The equipment shall be purchased directly from Photonic Microdevices, Inc. as they this system in their inventory line that will specifically support our needs and the system being specified has been modified to use pressurized vessels which are required for dispensing the intended chemistries (tetra-methyl ammonium hydroxide developer solution). The pressurization mitigates the solution's tendency to crystallize and clog feed lines and dispensing nozzles and thereby allows us to develop and maintain processing recipes needed to support our laser writing system and as such is not a commercially available product as this system specified has already been highly modified and is the only one of its kind. *** ***Delivery shall be FOB Destination, Gaithersburg, MD, and is required within 4-6 weeks after receipt of an order.*** ***The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334513, and the size standard is 500 employees.*** ***No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, the Government will consider responses received by August 4, 2008.*** 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.
