Request for Information for Ultralow Temperature Quantum Materials/Devices Measurement System

Summary (Newest Update)

Background The Center for Functional Nanomaterials and The Co-design Center for Quantum Advantage are seeking to acquire an ultralow temperature platform for the characterization of quantum materials and devices. This initiative is part of their mission to advance research in quantum coherence and superconducting qubits, which are critical for the development of quantum technologies. Work Details The contract involves the procurement of an ultralow temperature quantum materials/device measurement system (UTQMD). The system must be a cryogen-free dilution refrigerator equipped with separate vacuum and radiation shields designed for two distinct measurement types: 1) Characterization of two-dimensional materials to achieve and control correlated quantum coherence. 2) Dielectric loss characterization using high-Q microwave cavities intended for materials used in superconducting qubits.
