Brief Description of Requirement:
The Science & Technology Facilities Council (STFC), a component Research Council of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), is a world-leading multi-disciplinary science organisation, whose goal is to deliver economic, societal, scientific and international benefits to the UK and its people - and more broadly to the world.
At its Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL), STFC's Central Laser Facility (CLF) is looking to purchase a vacuum chamber for use on a new beamline installation on the Vulcan Petawatt Laser. The project is to introduce a new ultra-short pulse laser beamline to the existing Petawatt laser to increase flexibility, enable a new range of experiments and provide an advanced probe for Petawatt laser-plasma interactions.
As part of the new beamline both an optical compressor chamber and a final focussing chamber are required for transport and conditioning of the beam. This tender covers the manufacture of the final focussing vacuum chamber.
