Description

Battelle, Pacific Northwest Division, Management & Operating Contractor of the U.S. Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), is requesting information from prospective offers to provide: The scanning electron microscope (SEM) along with the focused ion beam (FIB) capability functionally includes a computer-controlled ion-beam micromachining based on a liquid-metal ion source and high-resolution SEM imaging based on a field-emission-gun (FEG) electron source. Full functionality is required for automated sample sectioning with access to electron beam, ion beam, stage positioning (patterning) and gas injector control. The instrument shall be configured to perform these operations either simultaneously or independently, attended or unattended, at the operator's will. Typically, the electron and ion beams shall be integrated in one chamber to achieve this. The system shall be fitted with an energy dispersive x-ray spectrometer (EDXS), wavelength dispersive spectrometer (WDS) and electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) camera and software which are similar to Oxford Synergy 350 Premium and EBSD Software or EDAX Trident and 3D OIM software system. This system shall possess the following mandatory specifications. Incorporation of this system with the FIB/SEM instrument is a must with the EDXS software should be able to generate phase maps and quant maps following the elemental mapping of a specific material (arbitrary line scans). The software should allow post-data collection re-processing and analysis of the spectral image data. Elemental maps should have the ability to be colored, as specified by the user, and software should be able to generate maps based on the raw data, net intensities, or background subtracted semi-quantitative data. It is also preferable for the system to have a heating stage capable of reaching the temperature up to 1500 0C. The system should be equipped with various gas injection abilities such as N2, O2, CH4, H2 and Ar. The goal is to carry our various re-crystallization, site specific annealing experience with in-situ microscopic, elemental and phase analysis on various geochemical, materials, organic-inorganic hybrid systems. This Request for Proposal can be found at http://www.pnl.gov/contracts/solicitations/ If you have questions or need additional information, they must also be submitted in writing to the points of contact.
