Engineered Carbon Nanotube (CNT) and Nanofiber Buckypapers--Florida State Univ.

www.fsu.edu

These materials are macroscopic or continuous thin films or membranes comprised of randomly oriented and magnetically aligned CNTs and nanofibers. These buckypapers combine the advantages of large dimensions, superior electrical conductivity, nanotube alignment, and continuous production.

Enhanced Deformable Mirror (DM)--Boston Micromachines Corp.

www.bostonmicromachines.com

These devices are used for ultra-high resolution retinal imaging, which is necessary for the early detection of ocular diseases. An enhancement of the Multi-DM, this new mirror delivers increased stroke while maintaining high resolution. The mirror's 3 kHz frequency capability allows for high-speed real-time imaging with a 6mm aperture perfectly suited for a dilated pupil.

Functionalized Nanoporous Thin Film (FNTF)Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

www.pnl.gov

FNTF is a customized coating that preconcentrates heavy metals in water, creating samples that increase the detection sensitivity of x-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy by up to 1,000x. FNTF-coated XRF sampling disks can preconcentrate selected heavy metals from liquid samples, which then presents a solid sample to the XRF instrument.

GLAD, Glancing Angle Deposition--Micralyne, Inc.

www.micralyne.com

GLAD is a proprietary physical vapor deposition (PVD) technology used to fabricate porous thin films composed of engineered nanostructures. GLAD combines a collimated vapor stream, low adatom mobility, and computer-controlled substrate motion to form columnar thin films that can be sculpted into a variety of nanostructures, including vertically aligned nanorods, helices, and chevrons.…
