Description
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 Boulder Nonlinear Systems of Lafayette, Colorado for the purchase of a Liquid Crystal Spatial Light Modulator needed by the Optical Technology Division at NIST, Gaithersburg, Maryland Sole source determination is based on the need for a liquid crystal spatial light programmable modulator for projecting arbitrary light patterns on a target through a microscope and/or camera lens, for the purpose of recovering target vertical height information. The required programmable 2D modulator possessing the following unique characteristics: • 100% fill factor to reduce higher-order diffraction • 6000 Hz refresh rate on the SLM • unique liquid crystal formulation resulting in very little pixel to pixel crosstalk( light spillage from one pixel affecting another), due to thinness of liquid crystal Boulder Nonlinear Optics is the only known vendor capable in providing the required modulators. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334516, and the size standard is 500. A determination by the Government whether 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 quotations. However, responses received by August 1, 2011 will be considered by the Government.
