Description

The University of Sheffield's department of Physics and Astronomy with funding from the EPSRC and Royal Society require a pump laser and Ti:Sa laser system. The objective is to establish a continuous wave tuneable laser system suitable for state of the art experiments on semiconductor nanostructures. The system will consist of a single-mode tuneable titanium sapphire (Ti:Sa) laser, optically pumped by a diode-pumped solid state (DPSS) laser emitting at 532 nm wavelength. In addition to that the DPSS laser should be useable on it's own to provide a source of optical power in experiments requiring 532 nm laser emission.

This is an open exercise. The ITT can be downloaded by registering and expressing your interest on the University`s e-tendering system https://in-tendhost.co.uk/sheffield
