This Request for Proposals (the “RFP”) is an invitation by the University of Ottawa (the “University”) to prospective proponents to submit proposals for a Dual-output optical parametric amplifier, funded by the Canada Foundation for Innovation and the Ontario Research Fund.THE DELIVERABLES: The project will establish Canada-s first two-dimensional infrared (2D-IR) spectrometer to support advanced research in chemistry, physics, materials science, photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, and cavity-enabled polaritonic chemistry. The spectrometer will be used to investigate ultrafast molecular structure, dynamics, and reaction mechanisms through multidimensional infrared spectroscopy. The requested optical parametric amplifier (OPA) is a key component of the system and will provide the tunable optical outputs required for the generation of mid-infrared pulses and optical excitation wavelengths used in advanced spectroscopic experiments.The requested equipment is a dual-output optical parametric amplifier (OPA) intended to operate with the University's existing Spectra-Physics Solstice Ace ultrafast laser system, which serves as the pump source for the spectrometer platform. The OPA generates two independently tunable outputs from a common white-light continuum seed. One output is used with a difference-frequency generation (DFG) stage to produce tunable mid-infrared pulses for two-dimensional infrared (2D-IR) spectroscopy, while the second output provides independently tunable radiati...
