Description
The United States Department of Commerce (DOC), National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Acquisition Management Division (AMD) intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, with AMAG Consulting, LLC, 221 FEATHERWOOD COURT, SCHENECTADY, NY 12303 for the purchase of High-Speed, Distributable Monte Carlo Simulation for SEM-based Overlay Metrology to be utilized by NIST-s Microsystems and Nanotechnology Division (MND). The statutory authority for this acquisition is 41 USC 3304(a)(1); FAR 13.106-1(b).
***** Sole source determination is based on the need to acquire High-Speed, Distributable Monte Carlo Simulation for SEM-based Overlay Metrology to advance the CHIPS mission of developing imaging and measurement solutions for integrated circuit (IC) overlay metrology using a scanning electron microscope (SEM).
Minimum Requirements:
Description: Monte Carlo software (MC SW)
Quantity: 1
Specifically, the Contractor shall provide an MC SW with the following minimum requirements:
1. Sophisticated, 3D sample geometry, material definition, and visualization by graphical user interface
2. Many shape primitives spheres, cylinders, cones, frustum, and surface roughness for easy simulation scene definition
3. Current state-of-the-art secondary electron generation physics models implemented
4. Create a database of material physical models for materials used in IC production, e.g., Si, SiO2, Si3N4, etc.
5. Structures, such as overly, dense and isolated IC lines, and contact holes, as predefined structures, made available and ready to be used
6. 3D representation of the simulated/modeled results
7. Batch processing capability
8. Capability to run on CPU clusters and efficiently gather and visualize simulated results by a CPU cluster
