Description
Notice of Intent to Noncompetitively acquire upgrade the existing resonant soft x-ray scattering through station.
This notice is not a request for a quotation. A solicitation document will not be issued, and quotations will not be requested.
This acquisition is being conducted under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b). The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334516, Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing which has a small business size standard of 1, 000 employees.The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Materials Measurement Lab (MML) is upgrading the resonant soft x-ray scattering (RSoxS) end station at NSLS-II at the Brookhaven National Laboratory facility as part of a project in the CHIPS Metrology program. The through station is used for measuring the microstructure and local chemistry of a variety of soft matter systems including those used in photolithography, organic electronics, water membranes, and biological systems. The through station is operated as part of the general user program at NSLS-II and is available for use through a proposal review system. The through station is situated on the SST1 beamline (https://www.bnl.gov/nsls2/beamlines/beamline.php?r=7-ID-1).
The RSoxS through station is being upgraded to allow soft x-ray reflectivity and a method called resonant critical dimension small angle scattering (res-CDSAxS). These measurements will enhance the ability of the through station to characterize new materials for photolithography. This requirement necessitates a system with the sample and the detector on a 2-circle goniometer in the vacuum chamber. The upgrade will also add a high throughput sample exchange system to increase the sample throughput of the through station.
The upgrade must be integrated into a large amount of existing instrumentation, software, and controllers. The modified chamber must fit in the current straight section ...
