Description

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking a tunable laser system with a reference wavemeter for wavelength scanning and locking. The system must meet specific technical specifications, including a continuous lasing output, a coarse wavelength tuning range of 861 nanometers ± 10 nanometers or broader, and a fiber-coupled output power of at least 25 milliwatts. The contractor shall deliver one tunable laser system with a 12-month warranty. Key features of the required system include: • A continuous lasing output • A coarse wavelength tuning range of 861 nanometers ± 10 nanometers or broader • A fiber-coupled output power of at least 25 milliwatts • An optical linewidth of 100 kilohertz or less • A mode-hop-free tuning range of at least 30 gigahertz • A wavelength measurement capability with 5 megahertz or better resolution • The ability to lock the laser source to a user-set fixed wavelength referenced to the wavelength measurement • Communications ports (USB, TCPIP, or similar) for communicating with an experimental control computer

Budget estimate

$50,000 – $500,000

The budget for this opportunity is difficult to estimate, as the document does not provide a specific budget or price range. However, based on the technical specifications and the complexity of the required system, it is likely that the budget will be in the range of $50,000 to $500,000. The factors that may influence the likely payment range include the cost of materials, labor, and research and development required to design and manufacture the tunable laser system. Additionally, the price may be affected by the competition in the market and the availability of similar products.
