UNSPSC 60104824: Wave optics apparatus

A device used to experiment phenomena, such as interference, diffraction, dispersion and polarization of the light caused by undulation.

UNSPSC 60104824 Wave optics apparatus, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity in state and local procurement. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Seminole County School Board's June 2026 notice of intent to sole-source five tonnes of Anorthosite Highlands Simulant from Space Resource Technologies—is a geoscience or STEM simulation material unrelated to wave optics or optical apparatus. The source does not reflect current state and local demand for traditional wave optics products such as optical lenses, prisms, diffraction gratings, laser optics, or related laboratory optical equipment. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the sole sourcing of lunar regolith simulant suggests either a classification error in the opportunity record or obsolescence of the code for active state and local procurement.

The Seminole County notice is the only recent entry under this code and provides no basis for characterizing geographic spread, issuing-body patterns, or representative wave-optics activity. School districts posting under related instructional materials codes (such as Katy ISD and Cartwright Elementary School District's STEM procurement RFPs, or Cobb County's science supplies IFB) do not appear to use this specific code for optical apparatus or optical laboratory equipment. Absence of recent opportunities under this commodity code signals low or no current state and local demand for wave optics apparatus procurement.
