LA1977C RFT NUIG for the Provision of a Nanoscale 3D X-Ray Tomography Imaging System

Tender description

Tenders are sought for the supply, delivery, installation and calibration of a 3D X-Ray Tomography Imaging System. This system will be capable of non-destructive nanoscale 3D in-situ imaging of a wide variety of materials, including polymers, metals, ceramics, geological materials and biological specimens. The 3D X-Ray Tomography Imaging System equipment must be capable of high-resolution sub-micron imaging capacity (<0.5 µm), which must be maintained over large working distances. In addition, the system must have the capability for diffraction contrast tomography (or similar) to enable non-destructive 3D mapping of grain morphology and crystallographic information in metallic polycrystalline material microstructures.
