Precision Diamond Thinning and Laser Processing

The contract seeks specialized subcontracting services to precisely thin diamond films using laser ablation or reactive ion etching techniques, specifically for applications requiring high electron transmission. The work demands extreme precision in film thickness control and surface quality to meet strict technical specifications essential for advanced electron microscopy or similar high-energy transmission systems. The diamond films must be processed to consistent, sub-micron tolerances without introducing defects or structural compromise that would impair their functional performance. The opportunity is posted under NAICS code 332999 for other fabricated metal product manufacturing and is issued by Brookhaven National Laboratory, a U.S. Department of Energy contractor. It is categorized as a subcontract with no set-aside designation, open to qualified performers regardless of business size or category. Responses are due by July 6, 2026, at 8:00 PM Eastern Time, with no designated point of contact listed. Performance location is unspecified, but all work must align with the technical requirements outlined for diamond thinning and laser processing to support critical scientific instrumentation.
