Application(s) for Duty-Free Entry of 

Scientific Instruments, 85 FR 75302–03, 

November 25, 2020 (Notice). We 

received no public comments. 

Docket Number: 20–008. Applicant: 

Rice University, 6100 Main Street, 

Houston, TX 77005. Instrument: Signal 

Acquisition ASCI. Manufacturer: 

LiMicro, China. Intended Use: See 

Notice at 85 FR 75302–03, November 

25, 2020. 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 were 

being manufactured in the United States 

at the time of order. Reasons: According 

to the applicant, the instrument will be 

used to study and investigate in-vivo 

large-scale, high-density, long-term, 

neutral recording to integrate the signal 

acquisition instrument that it plans to 

purchase with its custom developed 

ultra-flexible nano electronic thread 

(NET) microelectrodes as a neural 

recording system to monitor chronic 

neural signals in freely behaving 

animals. The applicant also plans to 

investigate the formation of connections 

between various brain regions and the 

evolution of the neutral connections 

over extended periods. This large-scale, 

high-density, long-term neural recording 

study has the potential to help 

understand the fundamental 

mechanisms of neural circuitry and 

explore treatments for neurological 

conditions. 

Docket Number: 20–009. Applicant: 

University of Chicago, Chemistry 

E005A, 929 E 57th Street (loading 

docket behind 5741 S Drexel Avenue), 

Chicago, IL 60637. Instrument: White 

Dwarf Optimal Parametric Amplifier 

System (OPCPA). Manufacturer: Class 5 

Photonics, GmbH, Germany. Intended 

Use: According to the applicant, the 

instrument will be used to study and 

determine how the local electronic 

structure of nanostructured materials is 

related to their morphology, and 

directly measure the electronic 

transitions at buried interfaces in 

materials, controlling anisotropic charge 

transport via photoinduced strain 

effects, manipulating energy transfer in 

polaritonic systems. The OPCPA is a 

work-horse laser system for 

simultaneous use with multiple 

experiments. The experiments to be 

conducted involve time-resolved 

photoemission microscopy of both 

occupied and unoccupied electronic 

structure of materials, heterodyned 

electronic sum-frequency-generation 

spectroscopy, transient absorption 

spectroscopy.
