Description
*****THIS IS A COMBINED SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE AND NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE***.
BACKGROUND
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Division 642, Materials Science and Engineering Division (MSED) is an organization whose mission includes developing techniques for structure and property measurements in CHIPS-relevant materials at the nanoscale under working conditions. The multimodal approach developed around the environmental transmission electron microscope (ETEM), including high-resolution imaging, diffraction, and chemical analysis techniques, such as EELS, energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS), cathodoluminescence (CL), and Raman spectroscopy, are currently supporting this mission.
In recent years, the semiconductor supply chain has become global, specialized, and interconnected. Chipmakers do business with thousands of individual suppliers that provide the highly complex materials and tools used to produce semiconductors. To address the lack of full visibility into the semiconductors market supply chain and R&D ecosystem gaps, NIST will conduct the measurement science, or metrology, critical to the development of new materials, packaging, and production methods in chip manufacturing. To continue supporting this mission, the ETEM metrology requires a spectrometer upgrade to advance electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) measurements in complex compound semiconductors, such as chalcogenides, nitrides, and oxides.
The ETEM Post-Column Electron Energy-Loss Spectrometer Upgrade sought here will enable low-electron-dose, high-frame-rate EELS acquisition by retrofitting a K2-IS direct-detection camera at the post-spectrometer position to measure the heterogeneity of optoelectronic structure and chemical composition in 2D and wide bandgap semiconductors with mitigated electron-beam effects. This structural or chemical heterogen...
