25N05831 - Acquisition of Sputtering Targets
About This Opportunity
TranslatedThis tender, identified by reference 25N05831, concerns the procurement of sputtering targets. Sputtering targets are essential materials used in physical vapor deposition (PVD) processes, specifically in sputtering techniques. These targets are typically made of various materials, including metals, alloys, oxides, and other compounds, and are vaporized under vacuum conditions using ion bombardment. The resulting vapor then deposits onto a substrate, forming thin films. These thin films are critical in numerous high-technology applications, such as semiconductor manufacturing, optical coatings, decorative coatings, and the production of magnetic storage media. The specific type, material composition, purity, and dimensions of the sputtering targets required will be detailed in the tender documentation. Potential bidders are expected to demonstrate their capability to supply high-quality sputtering targets that meet stringent technical specifications. This acquisition is likely intended to support research and development activities, manufacturing processes, or scientific instrumentation within the procuring entity. Further details regarding the quantity, delivery schedule, and evaluation criteria will be provided in the full tender documents.
This is a supplies contract in the trade and industry, Research and information and communication technology sectors, with a focus on IT support, Manufacturing and Scientific Research. Located in Portugal, Europe, this opportunity is open to firms and consortiums, with an estimated budget of EUR 6,789.
