Japan. Intended Use: The instrument is
intended to be used for studies
including:
wwhite on PROD1PC61 with NOTICES
1. Decomposed metal complexes at low
temperatures which yield
nanocrystalline products that are useful
catalysts, electrode materials for
batteries and supercapacitors, corrosion
inhibitors, photovoltaics, and sorbants
for pollutants.
2. Semiconducting nanoparticles (as
small as 2 nm), single wall nanotubes
and the electrical conductivity of either
a semiconductor or a metal, depending
on the diameter and helicity of the tube.
3. Virus–vector interactions in several
important plant disease inducing
viruses, that are vectored by fungi, for
understanding emerging diseases in
plants.
3940 N. Elm, Research Park Room E132,
Denton, TX 76203. Instrument: Mass
Spectrometer, Model Nova 200
NanoLab. Manufacturer: FEI Company,
The Netherlands. Intended Use: The
instrument is intended to be used in a
central research facility for studies in
materials science, chemistry, biology
and physics. For example, in materials
science and engineering, it will be used
to study shape–memory metallic alloys,
aluminum alloys for automotive uses,
porous ceramic thin films and strained
Si substrates for microelectronic
devices, polymer nanocomposites,
characterization of ion beam–solid
interaction, optoelectronic thin films for
solid state lighting and photovoltaic
applications, and ceramic materials for
low temperature solid oxide fuel cells.
Application accepted by Commissioner
of Customs: February 14, 2006.
Docket Number: 06–005. Applicant:
University of Maryland, Materials
Science and Engineering Department,
Kim Building, Room 1237, College Park,
MD 20742. Instrument: Electron
Microscope, Model JEM–2100F.
Manufacturer: JEOL Ltd., Japan.
Intended Use: The instrument is
intended to be used to characterize
nanomaterials and nanocomposites at
the atomic level. These include
semiconductor nanostructures,
polymeric materials, metal
nanoparticles, ferroelectric/
ferromagnetic oxide nanocomposites
and semiconductor nanowires.
Properties of materials examined
include crystal structure and quality of
material, structural defects, and
morphology using techniques of
electron diffraction, high resolution
lattice imaging, bright/dark field
imaging and obtaining electron
diffraction patterns and images of areas
as small as a few nanometers in
diameter. The instrument will also be
used in courses and for conducting
individual graduate research projects.

Consolidated Decision on
Applications, for Duty–Free Entry of
Electron Microscopes
This is a decision consolidated pursuant
to section 6(c) of the Educational,
Scientific, and Cultural Materials
Importation Act of 1966 (Pub. L. 89–
651, 80 Stat. 897; 15 CFR part 301).

Docket Number: 05–062. Applicant:
University of Texas Medical Branch at
Galveston, Galveston, TX. Instrument:
Electron Microscope, Model JEM–
2200FS. Manufacturer: JEOL Ltd.,
Japan.Intended Use: See notice at 71 FR
2024, January 12, 2006. Order Date:
February 23, 2005.
Comments: None received. Decision:
Approved. No instrument of equivalent
scientific value to the foreign
instrument, for such purposes as these
instruments are intended to be used,
was being manufactured in the United
States at the time the instruments were
ordered. Reasons: Each foreign
instrument is a conventional
transmission electron microscope
(CTEM) and is intended for research or
scientific educational uses requiring a
CTEM. We know of no CTEM, or any
other instrument suited to these
purposes, which was being
manufactured in the United States
either at the time of order of each
instrument OR at the time of receipt of
application by U.S. Customs and Border
Protection.
