Notice Title

1686 - Dynamic and Correlative Imaging using Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (DCI-TERS)

Notice Description

The University requests tenders from sufficiently experienced and qualified Suppliers to establish a contract for the provision of a state-of-the-art capability for physicochemical imaging of molecular materials with nanoscale precision at both the liquid-solid and gas-solid interfaces based on Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (TERS). The single-platform analytical tool will be flexibly configured to enable molecular fingerprint imaging of materials significantly below the diffraction limit for sampling both liquids and solids, with near-single-molecule-level sensitivity, correlatable with 3D topographical analysis and other surface physical characteristics from a single nanoscale volume, and in response to temperature, humidity and electrical potential (aka "Dynamic and Correlative Imaging using Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy" (DCI-TERS)).
