Mid-IR Optical Frequency Comb

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking information from sources capable of providing Optical Frequency Comb Systems to support metrology research for materials purity, properties, and provenance. The systems should perform broadband spectroscopy and spectroradiometer calibrations across the mid-wave and far-wave infrared, generate broadband spectral reference data, evaluate spectrometer performance, interrogate gas samples, and be customizable to meet NIST specifications. This posting is a Sources Sought / Request for Information to identify capable sources, not a grant program.
