NCTR2277 - Supply,Delivery, Installation, and Commissioning of 1 (one) Spectrofluorimeter for TU Dublin

Descriptions

A spectrofluorimeter is a device used to measure parameters of visible spectrum fluorescence: its intensity and wavelength distribution of emission spectrum after excitation by light. Tender is sought for the supply of a research-grade spectrofluorimeter which must present the following characteristics: •High sensitivity allowing for detection of very weak fluorescence signals.•All-reflective-optics with 10,000:1 (or higher) water Raman specification.•Xenon source delivering excitation light from ultraviolet (UV) to the near infra-red (NIR) spectral region.•Must be supplied with configurated computer and software for the control of the instrument and data analyses. The software must be supplied with a perpetual license.•The system must include a highly-sensitive emission detector for spectral detection up to 1600 nm.•Must be equipped with Time-correlated single-photon counting (TCSPC) fluorescence lifetime detector for both very short (down to 25 ps) and long (up to 1 s) lifetime measurements.•Must be equipped with pulsed laser diode with peak wavelength 510nm +/-10nm, repetition rates up to 100 MHz and active temperature control.•The total bench footprint of the system should not be more than 150 cm (w) x 60 cm (d).•The system supplied must include at least ONE year’s Instrument Warranty that comprise all hardware, labour, call outs, visits, travels and part replacements, THREE years is desirable.•The system should be flexible and allow for purchase of additional functionality at a later date to keep up-to-date with developments in the field.
