NanoScience Phenom XL G2 SEM

Background
This requirement is for the acquisition of a NanoScience Phenom XL G2 Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) for NASA Johnson Space Center (JSC) to support daily work performed on site. The goal is to enhance the capabilities of the center in conducting advanced materials analysis.

Work Details
The contract involves the procurement of a NanoScience Phenom XL G2 SEM, which includes:
- 1 unit of Phenom XL G2 SEM with standard peripherals and a sample preparation starter kit. Key features include:
- Accommodates 100mm x 100mm sample size or 36 1/2" stubs
- Acceleration Voltages: 4.8kV to 20.5kV
- Maximum magnification: 200,000x
- Backing Pump for Turbomolecular Pump
- X/Y Motorized Stage with 50mm x 50mm travel
- High brightness, long life electron source
- High definition backscatter detector
- Integrated navigation camera with the same point of view as the detector
- Never-Lost Navigation feature for interactive relation between optical and electron images
- Includes a 24" monitor, mouse, and keyboard with a one-year warranty. Additionally, available upgrade options include: SED, EDS, extended stage travel, and ProSuite applications software for particle-, poro-, and fiber-metric analysis. Upgrades can be made to Particle X for automated SEM/EDS analysis. Other items include:
- Upgrade Phenom XL (G2) with EDS for elemental analysis including EID Elemental Identification software;
- Secondary Electron Detector (SED) for enhanced imaging;
- ChemiSEM and Elemental Quant Mapping for real-time elemental mapping;
- MAPS 3 Software for advanced image mapping and stitching;
- SEM training for users;
- Extended travel motorized stage option to increase scan area from 50mm x 50mm to 100mm x 100mm.

Period of Performance
7 – 10 weeks after receipt of order (ARO).

Place of Performance
