Purchase of a Visible - Short Wave Infrared Fibre Optics Reflectance Spectroscopy (VIS-SWIR FORS) System

The purpose of this Procurement Exercise is for the purchase of: 1. A fibre optics reflectance spectroscopy (FORS) system covering the visible and the short-wave infrared range (VIS-SWIR: 380 - 2500 nm). The system must be able to non-invasively acquire good quality spectra of the varied materials in an archival collection (such as pigments, organic dyes, inks, binding media, paper, parchment, textiles, photographic emulsions, organic coatings and adhesives, degradation products, etc.) using low illumination levels...
