Comments: None received. Decision:
Approved. We know of no instruments
of equivalent scientific value to the
foreign instruments described below, for
such purposes as each is intended to be
used, that was being manufactured in
the United States at the time of its order.
Docket Number: 12–053. Applicant:

received. Decision: Approved. We know
of no instruments of equivalent
scientific value to the foreign
instruments described below, for such
purposes as this is intended to be used,
that was being manufactured in the
United States at the time of order.
Reasons: The instrument will be used to
measure detected near-field signals
scattered off an Atomic Force
Microscope (AFM) tip in a scatteringScanning Near-field Optical Microscope
(s-SNOM). The instrument will detect
the magnitude and phase of the light
scattered by an AFM tip to measure the
electromagnetic near-field of optical
antennas, plasmonics in metals and
semiconductors (including graphene),
photonic crystals, and other nanoscale
spectroscopy applications. The
instrument has the ability to fully
digitize the measured signal and analyze
it at 50 MHz, as well as the ability to
demodulate many frequencies at once,
which is essential to the measurement
technique. Demodulation at 50 MHz is
necessary because the AFM tip
oscillates at 350–300 kHz, and higher
harmonics (5th or 6th) of this oscillation
must be measured to isolate the nearfield signal.

Comments: None received. Decision:
Approved. We know of no instruments
of equivalent scientific value to the
foreign instruments described below, for
such purposes as this is intended to be
used, that was being manufactured in
the United States at the time of order.
Reasons: The instrument will be used to
determine the behavior of produced
scintillation light and ionization
electrons of low energy nuclear recoils
of Xenon, as well as to compare the
combination of energy released in these
two channels to energy released in
electronic recoils of the same energy.
The scintillation and ionization signals
are studied in a detector vessel that lies
underneath 5 meters of water, thus the
instrument needs to be water tight. To
study the scintillation light and
ionization behavior of liquid xenon to
neutrons from a mono-energetic neutron
source with energies close to 2.5 MeV,
each neutron interaction must be
resolved separately, and thus arrive at
most once every millisecond. The
instrument has been proven to show
less than a few hundred counts per
second when operated at low voltage,
and thus meets this requirement.
Docket Number: 12–057. Applicant:
Massachusetts Institute of Technology,
Cambridge, MA 02139. Instrument: Fast
Ferrite Tuner. Manufacturer: AFT
Microwave GmbH, Germany. Intended
Use: See notice at 77 FR 74647,

received. Decision: Approved. We know
of no instruments of equivalent
scientific value to the foreign
instruments described below, for such
purposes as this is intended to be used,
that was being manufactured in the
United States at the time of order.
Reasons: The instrument is part of a
magnetic field-aligned Ion Cyclotron RF
antenna, which is used to automatically
follow the load variation in real time
and make the antenna system load
tolerant. The instrument’s unique
specifications are its frequency range of
50–80 MHz and 5 MW circulating
power.

that was being manufactured in the
United States at the time of order.
Reasons: The instrument will be used to
study matter on the fundamental atomic
length scale and the associated ultrafast
time scales of atomic motion and
electronic transformation. The NdFeB
magnet blocks must be of high magnetic
field density to achieve the base spectral
range. They must also be of high
uniformity in order to achieve FreeElectron Laser (FEL) saturation. In
addition to meeting these requirements,
the unique capabilities of this
instrument are expanded spectral reach,
x-ray beams with controllable
polarization, and ‘‘pump’’ pulses over a
vastly extended range of photon
energies to a sample, which are
synchronized to the Linac Coherent
Light Source II project’s ray probe
pulses with controllable inter-pulse
time delay.
Docket Number: 12–063. Applicant:
University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA
15260. Instrument: Dilution Refrigerator

Magnet. Manufacturer: Leiden
Cryogenics, the Netherlands. Intended
Use: See notice at 77 FR 76456–57,
December 28, 2012. Comments: None
received. Decision: Approved. We know
of no instruments of equivalent
scientific value to the foreign
instruments described below, for such
purposes as this is intended to be used,
that was being manufactured in the
United States at the time of order.
Reasons: The instrument will be used,
in conjunction with the instrument
imported under docket 12–065, to
develop ways for preserving quantum
information in a way that is immune to
a wide variety of decoherence
mechanisms, to program fundamental
couplings at near-atomic scales, for the
quantum simulation of
‘‘metasuperconductors,’’ and to develop
new mechanisms for the transfer of
quantum information between longlived localized states and delocalized
states. The samples to be studied are a
thin layer of LaAIO3 (LAO), grown on
SrTiO3, which undergoes a metal to
insulator transition when the LAO
thickness is greater than 3 unit cells.
The unique features of this instrument
are the ability to cool samples to T<50
mK using cryogen-free cooling where
possible, an integral cryogen-free 3 axis
vector magnet (>5/1/1 T), an integral
large field magnet (>18T), the ability to
rotate the orientation in a large field,
and scanning probe microscopy
capability at base temperature
(T<50mK). These features enable the
sample to be cooled below the
superconducting transition temperature
