Description
Notice ID Number NIST-SS25-45
Title: Sources Sought Notice for Optical Spectrum Analyzer
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
As part of a new NIST SERI program to advance measurement science for illicit drug identification and quantification under the TRANQ Research Act, the Sensor Science Division is developing new infrared drug sensors based on metamaterials. These metamaterial sensors rely on detection at infrared wavelengths spanning 2 mm to 11 mm for spectroscopic detection of drug molecules in the sensitive molecular fingerprint region. For benchmarking the performance of the sensor, a laser spectrum analyzer is required for characterizing metamaterial sensor spectral response.
The contractor shall provide a laser spectrum analyzer that must have continuous spectral coverage over the 1 mm to 12 mm wavelength range at high spectral resolution (1 ppm accuracy). This specification is necessary for both characterization of the metamaterial sensor and spectroscopic detection of drug molecules.
NIST is seeking information from sources that may be capable of providing a solution that will achieve the objectives described above.
