University Of Ottawa Tender

The Unversity Of Ottawa Is Pleased To Invite Qualified Proponents To Submit A Proposal For A Laser That Will Be Used For Driving Two Optical Parametric Amplifiers (opa). The Opa Outputs Serve As Seed Pulses For A High-power Mid-infared Laser System.the Laser Needs To Produce Two Outputs At The Same Time. Each Channel Is To Deliver No Less Than 2 Mj, Pulses Shorter Than 250 Fs, At 5 Khz. The Carrier-envelope Phase Of The Pulses From At Least One Of The Channels Must Be Stabliized. Mandatory Requirements: 1. yb Cpa Laser 1.1 Pulse Duration Full Width At Half Maximum (fwhm) Must Be: 100 Fs ≤ T ≤ 250 Fs. 1.2 Central Wavelength Λc Must = 1030 ± 50nm. 1.3 Pulse Energy (single Shot To 5 Khz) Must Be Either Two Channels Where E ≥ 2 Mj For Each Channel, Or One Channel Where E ≥ 4 Mj 1.4 The Laser Must Be Capable Of Achieving Two Outputs Simultaneously. 1.5 Repetition Rate Must Be:  1 Hz ≤ Frep ≤  50 Khz.  1.6 Power Stability Must Be < 0.5 % Root Mean Square (rms) 1.7 Output Beam Quality Must Be M2 <1.3 1.8 Polarization Must Be Linear 1.9 Power Must Be Either 120 Vac Or 208 Vac, Single Phase, <2 Khz 1.10 Pulse Selection: Any Base Repetition Rate Division (the Repetition Rate Can Be The Maximum Value Divided By Any Power Of 2; Such As 2,4,8, Etc.) 1.11 The Carrier-envelope Phase Of The Pulses From A Minimum Of One Channel Must Be Stabilized. Said Stabilization Of The Slow-loop Carrier Envelope Phase Must Be < 350 Mrad Rms. 1.12 Oscillator Carrier Envelope Phase Standard Deviation Must Be < 150 Mrad 1.13 Must Include Either An Air-to-water Cooled Chiller Suitable For Instrument. 2. Other Requirements 2.1 Installation And Training must Be Included. 2.2 The Instrument Must Operate For A Minimum Of 8 Consecutive Hours; 5 Days Per Week. 2.3 Must Include One (1) Year Warranty On Parts And Labor. 2.4 Must Be Capable Of Providing Up To A Total Of 5 Years Of Extended Warranty. 2.5 All Electrical Components Must Have Csa (canadian Standards Association) Certification Or Accepted Equivalent As Per Electrical Safety Authority Recognized Certification Mark At The Following Link: Https://esasafe.com/electrical-products/recognized-certification-marks/ Otherwise, All Electrical Components Must Be Able To Undergo The Applicable Electrical Inspection, And/or, Certification, Without Voiding The System Warranty.
