About this file
This document is the Salient Characteristics for a Tunable Pulsed Laser System that is the subject of a federal contract opportunity.
The required laser system must consist of a fundamental pulsed laser and an optical system for parametric amplification and wavelength conversion. The fundamental laser must be a hands-free, high-power output pulsed laser with over 60W average power at 1035nm, featuring computer control, variable repetition rates, pulse lengths, and integrated modulation capabilities. The optical parametric amplifier and harmonic conversion crystals must provide ultrafast optical pulses tunable from 325nm to 2500nm.
The federal contract opportunity, solicitation number N00173-24-Q-HH01, is being issued by the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) for the procurement of one (1) tunable pulse laser system. Quotes are being solicited in accordance with FAR Subparts 13.5 and 12.6. Additional details are provided in the attached Combined Synopsis/Solicitation document.

SALIENT CHARACTERISTICS
Tunable Pulse Laser System
PSC: 5860 – Stimulated Coherent Radiation Devices, Components, and Accessories
NAICS: 334510 – Laser systems and equipment, medical, manufacturing
Following is a list of the salient characteristics of the required tunable pulsed laser system:
The required tunable pulsed laser system needs to be comprised of:
1) a fundamental pulsed laser, and
2) an optical system for parametric amplification and wavelength conversion.
1) Fundamental laser system specifications:
A hands-free, turn-key, high-power output pulsed laser with >60W average power at 1035nm, in a single sealed box, with computer control and software GUI. Laser system must provide fully variable repetition rates, variable pulse length and integrated modulation capabilities for pulse picking and rep rate down selection. A more detailed summary is as follows:
60W, 60uJ, 1MHz or 80uJ at 750kHz
Beam quality: TEM00 with M2 < 1.2, Beam circularity >85%
On board AOM for down selection of repetition rate from single shot to 50MHz.
Software controlled user variable pulse width from < 350fs to >10ps.
All fiber single pass MOPA design from seed laser to main amplifier.
On board pulse width monitor and energy monitor.
Single box design with no distributed seed laser or pump diodes in a separate box.
Seeder includes mode-locking SESAM shifter for long life operation.
Three-point kinematic mount on laser head for superior long term stable operation in diverse ambient temperatures.
Integrated onboard active cleaning engine to maintain cleanliness of laser housing in harsh environments throughout the life of the laser.
HASS/HALT testing protocol, B10 > 22,500hrs
RS232, Ethernet, and USB interface with remote access.
Laser vendor must be able to provide remote service (to remotely diagnose performance and system issues), field-service visits by trained technicians, and even outright replacement of the laser from stock if necessary.
2) Parametric amplification and wavelength conversion:
An Optical Parametric amplifier (OPA) is required that uses the pulses from the amplified femtosecond laser system of item 1. The OPA must have computer-controlled tuning, and along with harmonic wavelength conversion crystals will provide ultrafast optical pulses from 325nm to 2500nm. A more detailed summary of specifications is as follows:
Tuning range 650 - 900 nm (signal) and 1200 - 2500 nm (idler), with >10% conversion efficiency from pump (signal + idler), with compressors to deliver 25-75 fs pulses
(signal) and 40-100 fs pulses (idler)
Tuning 900-1025nm, and 1045-1200 nm with <300 fs pulses
Second harmonic device for tuning from 325-450nm and 600-1250nm.
Second harmonic device for tuning from 325-510nm and 525-1250nm.
Computer and control software to enable computer-controlled wavelength tuning.
Installation and training of laser system.
