- Description
- (11) A. Objective: To find sources that are qualified to meet the supplies/services as listed in section 11B. Note that the specific requirements in section C are subject to change prior to the release of any solicitation. B. The Army Research Laboratory [ARL] requires thirty-nine (39) quantum grade diamond samples for quantum sensing and timing. These samples shall achieve long dephasing times, uniformity, and varied nitrogen vacancy center densities. The minimum specifications required by the Government for the quantum grade diamond samples are the following: Four (4) Samples meeting the� following conditions 16 parts per million [ppm] starting Nitrogen [N] > 99.99% 12C [Carbon-12] Typical dimensions 3 � 3 � 0.5 millimeter [mm] Laser cut edges, polished top and bottom Varied nitrogen vacancy [NV] concentration 1x, 2x 3x, 4x Two (2) orders of magnitude in the spin coherence time [T2*] typically > 1 millisecond [?s] � Four (4) Samples meeting the� following conditions 16 ppm starting [N] > 99.99% 12C [Carbon-12] Typical dimensions 3 � 3 � 0.1 mm Laser cut edges, polished top and bottom Approximately 3.8 ppm [NV] T2*> 1 [?s] � Four (4) Samples meeting the� following conditions 16 ppm starting [N] > 99.99% 12C [Carbon-12] Typical dimensions 3 � 3 � 0.9 mm Laser cut edges, polished top and bottom Approximately 3.8 ppm [NV] � Four (4) Samples meeting the� following conditions Approximately 0.8 ppm starting [N] 1.1% 13C [Carbon-13] Dimensions 3 � 3 � 0.5 mm Laser cut edges, polished top and bottom Varied NV concentration 1x, 2x 3x, 4x � Four (4) Samples meeting the� following conditions Approximately 0.8 ppm starting [N] 1.1% 13C [Carbon-13] Dimensions 3 � 3 � 2 mm Laser cut edges, polished top and bottom Approximate NV concentration 200 ppb T2* > 0.8 [?s] � Four (4) Samples meeting the� following conditions Approximately 0.8 ppm starting [N] > 99.99% 12C [Carbon-12] Typical dimensions 3 � 3 � 0.5 mm Laser cut edges, polished top and bottom T2* > 0.8 [?s] � Three (3) Samples meeting the� following conditions Approximately 0.8 ppm starting [N] 99.99% 12C [Carbon-12] Typical dimensions 3 � 3 � 1 mm Laser cut edges, polished top and bottom Approximate NV concentration 200 parts-per billion [ppb] � Four (4) Samples meeting the� following conditions Substrate details: Electronic grade 1 [?s] � Four (4) Samples meeting the� following conditions Substrate details: Electronic grade 1 [?s] � Four (4) Samples meeting the� following conditions Substrate details: Electronic grade 99.99% 12C [Carbon-12] Approximate NV layer thickness 40 ?m Typical dimensions 3 � 3 � 0.5 mm T2*> 1 [?s] � Manuals:� Necessary documentation and manuals describing operation (including acceptance reports). Delivery: Include cost of shipping and warranty as part of the procurement. Deliver to 2800 Powder Mill Rd, Adelphi MD 20783, USA C. Responses: � All interested parties should notify this office in writing, mail, fax, or e-mail within the posted date.� Responses shall include: To what extent each of the specifications can be met. � �Include your type of business (i.e. commercial, academia), whether your organization is classified as a large or small business based on the 500 Employee standard that accompanies NAICS code 333514. If a small business, you must also list any small disadvantaged status you hold [HUBZone, 8(a), Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), Women Owned Small Business (WOSB), Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB), etc.]. � Past experience/ performance through the description of completed projects. � (12) Responses to this sources sought are due no later than 5:00 PM eastern standard time 9/10/2020. Submissions should be emailed to Adrian Barber, adrian.t.barber.civ@mail.mil. �� � Questions concerning this sources sought may be directed to Adrian Barber at adrian.t.barber.civ@mail.mil. Please be advised that .zip and .exe files cannot be accepted. �(13) Place of Contract Performance: Not Applicable (14) Estimated Delivery Timeframe or Period of Performance: 60 days after receipt of order (ARO)
