AI Contract Overview
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory is issuing a Request for Information under solicitation JG-0909-26 to identify potential providers for a high-stability X-ray monochromator system for Beamline 4.3.1 at the Advanced Light Source. The system is intended to support a broad scientific program in small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering, with optimized performance required at 10 keV and 17 keV. Key technical requirements include a double-multilayer monochromator baseline with an energy bandwidth of approximately 1 percent, a Si(111) crystal monochromator for higher resolution over 10 to 17 keV, and the integration of cryo-cooling for the first multilayer to manage thermal distortions. The system must also comply with strict facility vacuum, space, and radiation safety standards. This is a presolicitation effort to gather data on technical feasibility, budgetary costs, and delivery schedules, with a project magnitude estimated between 500,000 and 600,000 dollars. Interested respondents must complete the RFI form sections 1 through 5 by October 16, 2026. The anticipated timeline includes a formal Request for Proposal in winter-spring 2027, with final system delivery expected by December 2028. Evaluation of responses will focus on achievable performance, system complexity, and the ability to conduct comprehensive Factory Acceptance Testing regarding optical, mechanical, and environmental stability prior to delivery and commissioning at the Berkeley, California facility.
