Request for Tenders dated 24.3.2017 for the Supply of Laboratory Equipment for the Physics and Bernal Institute, of the University of Limerick
Education Procurement Service (EPS)
As part of the University of Limerick's Bernal Project, which is focused on generating real impact for Ireland in the strategic areas of Pharmaceutical Science and Engineering, Modern Materials, Biomedical Materials and Engineering, Energy and Sustainable Environment, the University has acquired a top-of-the range transmission electron microscope (TEM). This will enable much required investigations on the atomic scale to be carried out on materials which are the major players in these areas. A recent Infrastructure award now enables the addition of capacities to this TEM, which will make its performance outstanding and unique, exhibited only by a handful of TEMs worldwide.
Lot 1: High speed, high sensitivity electron detector to be installed in a Transmission Electron Microscope, (TEM).
Lot 2: Cryo Transfer Tomography Holder for TEM.
Lot 3: In-situ holders:
1: In-situ gas holder for TEM;
1: In-situ heating and biasing holder for TEM;
1: In-situ liquid holder for TEM.
