## Summary

The Cardiff University has recently awarded a contract to Lambda Photometrics Ltd for a probe station, chamber, and analyser intended for materials and device quantum efficiency and IV/CV measurements. The procurement process was initiated on 9th November 2022, with a contract value of £126,850. The equipment is required to be delivered by 31st March 2023 and includes features such as simultaneous current and voltage analysis, integration with an optical microscope, and auto micro positioning and probing system.

This tender by Cardiff University offers opportunities for businesses involved in the supply of instruments for checking physical characteristics. The main procurement category is goods, and the tender period ended on 19th October 2022. Interested parties could further explore the invitation to tender details on Cardiff University's in-tendhost platform. The awarded contract, active since 31st October 2022, demonstrates potential growth prospects for suppliers in the field of scientific instrumentation serving research applications.

## Notice

Micro-bioelectronics is a research field that takes advantage of the inherent properties of polymers and soft organic electronics for applications at the interface of biology and medical electronics. The analysis of these devices largely rely on micro-probing system with in situ quantum efficiency analysis ability such as current voltage (I/V), capacitance voltage (C/V), multiple electrode configurations (2, 3, 4 probe system) and micro probes loading and positioning. The equipment should allow for rapid highly sensitive simultaneous measurement of a I/V and C/V of semiconductor devices (transistors, diodes, capacitors etc.) over a wide dynamic range with high accuracy.We are seeking an instrument to be housed with a central quantum efficiency hub to provide rapid measurement of active and passive semiconductor, medical, healthcare and biological devices for determine levels of carrier mobilities, I/V and C/V characteristics.The equipment must allow for; simultaneous current and voltage (multi-electrodes) analysis, be integrated with a high-resolution optical microscope, auto micro positioning and probing system and be delivered prior to 31st of March 2023 and with a minimum warranty of 12 months.
