About this file
This document is an Attachment containing salient characteristics and requirement specifications for a Quantum Demonstration/Experiment System solicitation FA700026Q0057.
The vendor must supply an integrated experimental platform for quantum information science and quantum optics capable of supporting both instructional laboratories and faculty-led research. The system shall be modular, scalable, and reconfigurable to enable multiple experiment configurations without permanent modification, with all components being commercially supported, laboratory-grade instrumentation suitable for sustained academic and research use. Key technical requirements include multiple single photon detectors with high quantum efficiency in the visible and near infrared spectral range, low dark count rates suitable for coincidence measurements, and sub-nanosecond timing resolution. The system must support characterization of polarization-entangled photon pairs via spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC), enabling coincidence counting, entanglement correlation measurements, and entanglement swapping experiments. Additionally, the system shall include high-resolution time tagging or time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) electronics capable of multi-channel coincidence detection, sub-nanosecond (picosecond level) timing precision, and high sustained count rates without significant dead time. The timing electronics must support digital data acquisition and post-processing for correlation and coincidence analysis.
