About this file
This is a Requirements / Specification Document for High Power Balanced Photodiodes issued by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), specifically the Communications Technology Laboratory's Radio Frequency Technology Division. The document details the procurement of 3 high-performance balanced photodiodes with extensive technical specifications, including DC-20 GHz operation, >15 GHz 3-dB bandwidth, dual single-mode fiber inputs with FC/APC connectors for 1550 nm continuous wave input, and a 2.92 mm single-ended RF output connector. Key performance requirements include photodiode responsivity >0.3 A/W, >50 mA continuous wave photocurrent, <100 nA typical dark current, high linearity, and 16 dBm output RF power.
The solicitation specifies delivery to NIST-Boulder by October 1st, with acceptance expected within 7 business days. The photodiodes are intended for measuring very weak amplitude modulated signals from electro-optic RF field probes, requiring maximum shot noise limited signal-to-noise ratio. The document indicates that the equipment should be new, with performance checked by the manufacturer before shipment, and includes a metal-packaged design with enclosed photodiodes for robust optical and thermal performance. The base manufacturer warranty is acceptable, and no specific training, maintenance, or calibration requirements are specified.
