About this file

This document is a detailed Requirements/Specifications document for a High Power Tunable Laser System at 885.4 nm for the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The solicitation seeks a comprehensive laser system for research on a compact optical frequency reference based on Cesium, with multiple specific components and stringent technical requirements. Key specifications include a laser system that operates at 885.40 nm with at least 75 mW of power output, a narrow linewidth of ≤100 kHz, mode hop free tuning range of >10 GHz, and coarse wavelength tuning from 870 nm to 895 nm.

The procurement includes eight separate line items: a laser head and chassis, an AR coated laser diode, a fully digital laser controller, a Faraday double stage isolator, a cylindrical telescope for beam-shaping, a fiber port, a fiber patch cord, and rack mount brackets. Delivery is expected within 16 weeks after receipt of order, with planned government acceptance testing to occur within 7 business days. The laser system is intended for the PML/Time and Frequency/Atomic Devices and Instrumentation division, with the solicitation number NB688000-25-01390, and requires sophisticated digital control electronics, precise temperature and current stabilization, and specific performance characteristics for research purposes.

TITLE: High Power Tunable Laser System at 885.4 nm Requesting Lab/Division/Group: PML / Time and Frequency / Atomic Devices and Instrumentation

NB688000-25-01390

General Statement of Need For experiments on research of a compact optical frequency reference based on Cesium we require a tunable semiconductor 885.4 nm laser system with at least 75 mW of power available coming out of a single mode optical fiber after an optical isolator providing isolation of at least 60 dB. For this experiment we require a laser with a narrow linewidth of less than or equal to 100 kHz in a 0.1 s integrated bandwidth. For stable operation, we require the output of the laser to be able to be directly coupled into a single mode polarization maintain fiber, mounted directly to the laser head. The laser must have a mode hop free tuning range of >10 GHz for stable operation. The laser system must also include necessary control electronics for operation of the laser including current and temperature control and piezo scanning. The laser system must have the ability for coarse wavelength tuning from 870 nm to 895 nm to be able to target additional transitions in cesium.
