## Summary

Swansea University has awarded a contract for the upgrade of an Intensified Charge Coupled Device (ICCD) Camera within their optical spectroscopy system at the Centre for Integrative Semiconductor Materials (CISM). The contract falls under the "goods" category and is designed to advance the university's capabilities in transient absorption and photoluminescence measurements, essential for time-resolved studies. The procurement process began with the tender issuance on January 8, 2025, and concluded with the contract award by February 7, 2025, to Andor Technology Ltd, based in Belfast. This upgrade is specifically intended to enhance the university’s existing spectroscopy equipment, making it compatible with their current infrastructure, including laser systems and spectrographs.

This procurement offers significant growth potential for businesses involved in the manufacture and supply of high-tech optical and laboratory equipment. Companies specialising in electric sensors, spectroscopy devices, optical instruments, and related technologies would find this contract rewarding. The tender, conducted through an open procurement method, highlights opportunities not only for direct suppliers but also for consortia aiming to provide a comprehensive solution. The contract, worth up to GBP 60,000 inclusive of VAT, was externally funded, thus indicating high standards and specific delivery requirements that align with the needs of advanced research facilities.

## Notice

This tender has now been awarded to upgrade the current optical spectroscopy capabilities for transient absorption and photoluminescence within the Centre for Integrative Semiconductor Materials (CISM) to include the capability to measure luminescence with variable gated pulse width (2 ns to 100 us) for time-resolved studies using an intensified charge coupled device (ICCD) sensor.
