Description

The School of Engineering and Physics at Aston University is looking to procure one (1) x femtosecond laser system to replace an old Ti:Sapphire regenerative amplifier laser. The equipment must: - be able to produce laser pulses comparable to or better than the current femtosecond laser source which is of 1kHz repetition rate, central wavelength of 800nm , pulse duration <150fs , pulse energy of ~1mJ, M^2 <1.2 , beam diameter of 5mm. -be able to produce stable laser pulses with root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) <0.5% for pulse to pulse energy within an appreciable long time span ( > 2 hours). -have user friendly control panel or interface. The aim of the procurement is to establish a 4 year contract for the initial supply & installation and also an extended warranty, service and maintenance package. The full project specific requirements and equipment specification can be found within the project question set on Aston University’s e-tendering portal ProContract under Section 9 – Project Specific Requirements.
