Notice Title

2868/JN - Solid State 532nm Pump Laser and TiSa Tuneable Laser System

Notice Description

The University of Sheffield's department of Physics and Astronomy with funding from the EPSRC and Royal Society require a pump laser and Ti:Sa laser system. The objective is to establish a continuous wave tuneable laser system suitable for state of the art experiments on semiconductor nanostructures. The system will consist of a single-mode tuneable titanium sapphire (Ti:Sa) laser, optically pumped by a diode-pumped solid state (DPSS) laser emitting at 532 nm wavelength. In addition to that the DPSS laser should be useable on it's own to provide a source of optical power in experiments requiring 532 nm laser emission. This is an open exercise. The ITT can be downloaded by registering and expressing your interest on the University's e-tendering system https://in-tendhost.co.uk/sheffield If you have any questions or comments in relation to this tender they must be submitted via the In-tend system, this can be accessed at https://in-tendhost.co.uk/sheffield Completed tenders must be returned through the same e-tendering system.
