Description
Notice ID Number NIST-SS25-CHIPS-0096
Title: Sources Sought Notice for MWIF QCL Source
The purpose of this sources sought notice is to conduct market research and identify potential sources of commercial products/services that satisfy the Government-s anticipated needs.
BACKGROUND
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), project was undertaken to develop and validate digital twin models for atomic layer deposition (ALD) processes to help facilitate efficient design and operation of these processes. One aspect of this project involves development and application of in situ optical diagnostics capable of quantifying precursor chemical concentrations in an ALD chamber, in both one and two dimensions. One optical technique that will be employed is mid-infrared (IR) gas-phase absorption of hydrogen chloride. For this application, the group must procure a mid-IR distributed feedback (DFB) interband cascade laser (ICL) source that operates at a wavelength around 3.6 microns and is wavelength-tunable. This ICL will be used as a source for absorption measurements using single element detectors as well as imaging cameras. Important characteristics for such measurements are good wavelength stability, high temperature stability, high output optical power, and good beam collimation. Therefore, the group must procure a DFB ICL in a high heat load package that provides a collimated optical beam output.
The purpose is to purchase a DFB ICL for IR absorption spectroscopy and imaging of hydrogen chloride in ALD gas delivery systems and deposition chambers. This laser will be used to produce critical data tracking the presence of undesirable reaction by-products during delivery of and deposition with molybdenum-containing chlorides and oxychlorides.
NIST is seeking information from sources that may be capable of providing a solution that will achieve the objectives described above.
