About this opportunity

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Goddard Space Flight Center seeks to procure a field emission scanning electron microscope to support research and development projects. Technical capability is the most important evaluation criteria, followed by price. Quotes are due no later than April 6, 2022 at 4:30 pm Eastern Standard Time and shall be emailed to the specified contracting officer. The FESEM must be a production model with at least 10 similar units installed, be new rather than used equipment, and meet SEMI-S2 safety standards.

No set-aside designation was used. The NAICS code is 334516 and PSC code is Q120. Delivery and installation is required within 9 months of order at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. The FESEM will have a magnification range of 10X to 2,000,000X, resolution of 0.5 nanometers, and accelerating voltages from 10V to 30kV. User training and a one year warranty on parts and labor is required.

Notice text

The GSFC Detector Development Laboratory (DDL) has a requirement to acquire a scanning electron microscope with a field emission source.  The system is used for high resolution imaging of micro and nanoscale structures built in the detector development laboratory.  The system should be suitable for secondary electron and backscatter electron imaging at low accelerating voltages. 

The FESEM consists of electron optics and detectors, a specimen stage, a vacuum system, and computer control.  The equipment is essential for nearly all device fabrication projects in GSFC’s Detector System Branch. In particular, the equipment is immediately needed for development for the cosmic microwave background polarization technology, microwave kinetic inductor detectors, far-infrared detectors, large format magnetic calorimeters, and microfluidic components which are important to Goddard’s lines of business.

No prototypes or one-of-a-kind systems will be considered. The unit must be a production model with at least 10 similar units working in the field.
