Fabrication of Tapered Doped-silicon Micropillars

NIST is seeking commercial vendors that can fabricate arrays of tapered/conical doped‑silicon micro‑pillars on 100 mm or 150 mm silicon wafers, meeting specific dimensional and dopant requirements and delivering diced coupons sized roughly 10 mm × 5 mm. The notice requires respondents to email a detailed capability statement—including company information, size classification, relevant contract numbers, past performance, and any limitations—to the listed contacts by October 31 2025; no formal proposal, price quote, or concept paper is requested. Respondents must indicate whether they are a small business under NAICS 334413 (≤500 employees) or NAICS 541713 (≤1,000 employees), but the notice does not require choosing among multiple topics or lots. This is a market‑research‑only sources‑sought; there is no solicitation, set‑aside, or performance period, and NIST will not award a contract or pay for the information submitted.
