Work Detail

Laboratory, Optical And Precision Equipment (Excl. Glasses) – Flunqylab_Time-Resolved Confocal Fluorescence Microscope. The Friedrich Schiller University Of Jena Intends To Purchase A (1) Versatile And User-Friendly Time-Resolved Confocal Fluorescence Microscope For Research Purposes, Which Enables The Optical Characterization Of Isolated Quantum Emitters As Well As Quantum Emitters Coupled To Optical Nanostructures. The System Requires A Correspondingly High Spatial Resolution To Image Nanoscale Structures, High Sensitivity To Detect Individual Quantum Emitters, And Time Resolution To Characterize The Emission Dynamics In Coupled Systems. In Order To Ensure The Excitation Of Different Emitter Systems To Be Examined, Excitation Lasers At Different Wavelengths In The Uv And Vis Range Are Required, Whereby Rapid Switching Between The Different Laser Sources Must Be Possible. The Excitation Laser Focus Must Be Able To Be Scanned Over The Examined Sample With Nanoscale Precision, Thus Enabling Two- Or, In Principle, Three-Dimensional Imaging As Well As Point Measurements With High Positioning Accuracy In The Nanometer Range. Furthermore, There Should Be The Possibility Of Wide-Field Excitation For Quick Overview Measurements Of The Spatial Light Distribution. On The Detector Side, Fast Detectors With Single Photon Sensitivity In The Visible Spectral Range Are Required. Powerful And Fast Electronics Are Essential For Measurements Of The Radiant Lifetime With Time Resolution Down To The Picosecond Range. The Requirement To Enable Measurements Of Photon Statistics To Detect Single Photon Emitters (Antibunching) Or Lasing In Nanostructures Also Results In The Need For A Special Arrangement (Hanbury-Brown-Twiss Setup) Of Several Fast Detectors And Electronic Support For Coincidence Measurements. For The Quantum Optical Investigation Of Systems With More Than One Emitter, At Least Three Detectors Arranged In A Detector Tree Are Required. Spectrally Resolved Measurements Are Also Essential For The Planned Experiments. The Time-Resolved Confocal Fluorescence Microscope Should Therefore Receive A Powerful Spectrograph Extension With High Quantum Efficiency, Which Is Described Separately (See Lv_Flunqylab_Spectrograph Extension). This Combination Enables A Multidimensional Analysis Of The Emission Properties Of A Wide Range Of Quantum Emitters In Light-Emitting Nanostructures As Well As On Functional Substrates. A Maximum Gross Amount Of 520,000.00 Euros Is Available As A Budget. The Awarding Authority Reserves The Right To Exclude Offers Above This Value From The Evaluation. If All Valid Offers Are Above This Amount, The Awarding Authority Is Entitled To Cancel The Tender. The Following Specifications/Properties Must Be Met At Least: See Appendix 2.
