Lot — bid on it if it fits
This contract has one lot. Bid if it suits your firm.
The NQCC’s initial focus has been on two platforms of quantum computing, one based on superconductors and one based on trapped ions. This were chosen based on technological maturity and UK strength. The NQCC continues to investigate other potential hardware modalities in detail. The centre will be headquartered in a purpose-built facility at the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC)’s Rutherford Appleton Laboratory Campus in Oxfordshire. The centre is due for completion in 2023. Ahead of the completion of the centre, a temporary lab facilities in existing STFC building have been used to fast track development. The required wavelength measurement systems will be used in both these temporary laboratories and in the NQCC lab spaces.
This procurement is for two wavelength measurement systems to be delivered to the NQCC. Each system must be capable of measuring the frequency of up to 8 lasers with an absolute uncertainty below 20MHz , further detailed requirements are listed within the Specification.£225,000
