The unique and required features include an andor camera connected to piezo driving optical objective, 3-D imaging device that uses a liquid-crystal focusing technology and so-called Ray technology to record 3-D information in one shot, and very fast mechanical noise-free recording of 3-D images of surfaces and cells. Docket Number: 17-005. Applicant: Boston University, Boston, MA 02215. Instrument: Positioner for a prototype Schwarzchild Couder Telescope (pSCT). Manufacturer: DESY-DeutchesElektronen-Synchrotron, Germany. Intended Use: See notice at 82 FR 23191-92, May 22, 2017. 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 material science research, using a fiber laser to induce two-photon polymerization in the target material. Through sophisticated coordination of an X-Y stage and a galvo-scanner, a structure designed in a standard CAD tool can be transferred to a cube of photosensitive material in a matter of minutes. The instrument is capable of lateral feature sizes for 3D structures of less than 200 nm, and less than 150 nm for 2D structures. The instrument is able to fabricate structures up to 300 [mu]m height with constant high resolution and quality independent of the structure height by means of a dip-in-laser lithography technique. Docket Number: 17-006. Applicant: The Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Boulder, CO 80303. Instrument: M1 Cell Assembly. Manufacturer: Mechanical & Optical Systems, NA, Belgium. Intended Use: See notice at 82 FR 23191-92, May 22, 2017. Comments: None received. Decision: Approved.
