## Summary

The University of Northumbria at Newcastle is planning a procurement for a Hall Effect System in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK. The system is intended for the Faculty of Engineering and Environment to enhance its engineering materials facilities. The procurement involves acquiring a compact, benchtop system for measuring quantities in semiconductor thin films, with a total value of £70,000. The procurement stage is currently "planned" with a future notice date of June 26, 2024.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specializing in instruments for measuring quantities in the goods category to participate. Companies with expertise in providing Hall effect systems for materials characterisation, especially in semiconductor thin films, transparent conductive oxides, and solar absorbers, would be well-suited to compete in this procurement process. The University of Northumbria at Newcastle, a public body governed by UK public law, is the buying organisation overseeing this opportunity.

## Notice

The Faculty of Engineering and Environment at Northumbria University is undergoing expansion and enhancement of its engineering materials facilities. Following recent grant successes, this includes investment in both space and equipment. In particular, we are looking to improve our materials characterisation facilities. We are looking to acquire a Hall effect system to measure resistivity/conductivity, carrier mobility and carrier concentration and type in semiconductor thin films. The system must be well suited to measure transparent conductive oxides as well as solar absorbers such as Sb2(S,Se)3, Cu2ZnSn(S,Se4) and related materials typically deposited on glass substrates. The system should be compact and benchtop and capable of reliably measuring thin film samples with low mobility (10-1 cm2/V.s or below) without compromising the measurement quality or samples with high mobility. The system should include full software and a PC to measure and extract the desired film properties with a user-friendly interface. UK training and support is paramount.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The procurement involves the acquisition of a compact, benchtop Hall effect system designed for precise measurement of resistivity/conductivity, carrier mobility, and concentration in semiconductor thin films. The system should be capable of reliably measuring samples with low mobility, supporting research and academic applications. Only one unit is required for this procurement. Additional information: While the contracting authority has decided to advertise voluntarily, does not represent a commitment to follow one of the official procurement procedures.
