High-Field Electromagnet System for MRAM Metrology

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is conducting market research to identify potential sources that can provide a High-Field Electromagnet System for MRAM Metrology. The system must meet or exceed the technical specifications provided, including a field strength of 0.5 T, a dedicated bipolar power supply, and a physical dimension of 11.5 cm x 11.5 cm x 19 cm. The system will be used for measurement science and metrology in the development of new materials, devices, packaging, and production methods in chip manufacturing. Some key points to consider are: • The system must be capable of producing 0.5 T fields at approximately 5 mm from the pole face. • The system must include a dedicated bipolar power supply to allow field sweeping from negative to positive values. • The system must fit within a volume of 11.5 cm x 11.5 cm x 19 cm due to laboratory space constraints. • The system must be capable of continuous operation at 0.5 T. • The system must include provisions for cooling to support continuous 0.5 T operation. • The field value shall be controllable by an external analog voltage and via standard computer interface.
