Clemson University's Chemistry Department seeks to sole source a Quantum Design MPMS3 SQUID Magnetometer with DC Scan and related accessories. The research program requesting this equipment focuses on designing and developing quantum materials – a special class of materials that display unique physical properties that cannot be explained by classical models. Developments in quantum materials could be a game changer for humanity by advancing science, technologies, environment conservation, national security, and healthcare. However, it is challenging to characterize the physical properties of the materials, especially when approaching a quantum regime with very small magnetic moments. Thus, it requires a sensitivity of <1 x 10-8 emu and capabilities for measuring magnetic, resistivity, and optical properties as a function of temperature and magnetic field. It is believed that the MPMS3 SQUID is the only equipment that has the required sensitivity and capabilities. Some manufacturers exist for just one or two of the desired options. However, no other manufacturer exists that incorporates all the options into a single instrument. Quantum Design, Inc. is the sole manufacturer of the DC SQUID and the equipment cannot be purchased from any other reseller or distributor. For these reasons, this is a sole source procurement.
