Summary
Machine-generated summaryThe Dutch research institute SRON, part of NWO, intends to purchase a cryogen free dilution refrigerator for studying and developing superconducting energy-resolving single-photon detectors (MKIDs). The system will support a project to develop highly sensitive MKIDs for exoplanet spectroscopy at visible to near-infrared wavelengths, demonstrated at a scale of ten-thousands of pixels. Key requirements include optical access from outside the cryostat, readout with at least 16 coaxial lines, operation without liquid Helium, vibration isolation for thin-membrane detectors, and fully automated cryogenic operation with manual control available. No estimated value, submission deadline, or specific procurement procedure is stated in the notice. Suppliers of laboratory cryogenic equipment may follow the tender procedure indicated in the full contract documents.
