About this opportunity
Summary of Key Details:
The Army Research Lab (ARL) is seeking sources capable of providing two (2) high power tunable laser systems with specific technical requirements. The laser systems must meet minimum specifications for continuous wave operation, single longitudinal output mode, TEM00 spatial mode, and beam quality. This Sources Sought notice is for market research purposes only and does not constitute a request for proposal or guarantee of a forthcoming solicitation. The proposed solicitation number is W911QX-24-Q-0208, and the closing response date is five (5) business days after posting.
This opportunity has no set-aside designation. Small businesses, including 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB, and EDWOSB, are encouraged to participate. The contracting office is the Department of the Army Materiel Command, Army Contracting Command Aberdeen Proving Ground. No potential incumbents or current contractors were identified, and the notice did not provide any details on award values or budget ranges.
Notice text
The Army Research Lab (ARL) requires two (2) high power tunable laser systems with the following minimum specifications, or equivalent:
- Shall be capable of continuous wave operation with a single longitudinal output mode and a fundamental transverse electromagnetic (TEM00) spatial mode with beam quality (M2) factor less than (<) 1.2.
- Shall have an output light that is linearly polarized with a ratio better than 100:1.
- Shall have an output spectral linewidth that must be less than (<) one (1) megahertz (MHz) in a 50-microsecond averaging time.
- Shall have all necessary control electronics to enable laser operation, including water-cooling chillers if necessary.
- Shall have an analog feedback mechanism with bandwidth greater than 20 kilohertz (kHz) for stabilization of the output frequency relative to an external reference.
- Shall produce tunable wavelength of the lasers in a continuous and deterministic manner.
- Shall have an output power of at least one (1) Watt over the entire wavelength tuning range.
- Shall meet the minimum/threshold tuning range for one (1) laser is from 1271.4 nanometers (nm) to 1255.5 nm, and best-effort/desired from 1296.6 nm to 1253.71nm.
- Shall meet the minimum/threshold tuning range for the other laser is from 745.62 nm to 738.8 nm, and best-effort/desired from 757.9 nm to 738.2 nm.
- Shipping and delivery shall be included to the Army Research Laboratory, Adelphi, MD, 20783
