BILLING CODE 6335–01–P 

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

International Trade Administration 

Massachusetts Institute of 

Technology, et. al; Application(s) for 

Duty-Free Entry of Scientific 

Instruments 

Pursuant to Section 6(c) of the 

Educational, Scientific and Cultural 

Materials Importation Act of 1966 (Pub. 

L. 89–651, as amended by Pub. L. 106– 

36; 80 Stat. 897; 15 CFR part 301), we 

invite comments on the question of 

whether instruments of equivalent 

scientific value, for the purposes for 

which the instruments shown below are 

intended to be used, are being 

manufactured in the United States. 

Comments must comply with 15 CFR 

301.5(a)(3) and (4) of the regulations and

Docket Number: 24–026. Applicant: 

Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 

77 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge, 

MA 02139. Instrument: Narrow line 

width laser, FL–SF–1695–0.5.–CW. 

Manufacturer: Shanghai Precilaser 

Technology, Co., Ltd., China. Intended 

Use: The instrument is intended to be 

used as a single frequency laser system 

at 1695 nm that will be used in quantum 

physics experiments at MIT for 

improved optical atomic clocks and 

precision measurement using ytterbium 

(171Yb). The 1695nm frequency is the 

Yb optical transition between the 

ground state 4f146s6p 3P0 and the 

metastable state 4f136s25d(J = 2), where 

J represents the total angular 

momentum. This transition allows the 

possibility of dual-mode optical lattice 

clocks to further reduce the uncertainty 

from external level shifts, as well as 

physics beyond the standard model (for 

example investigating a potential 

mediating particle for forces between 

electron and neutron). Justification for 

Duty-Free Entry: According to the 

applicant, there are no instruments of 

the same general category manufactured 

in the United States. Application 

accepted by Commissioner of Customs: 

August 8, 2024. 

Docket Number: 24–027. Applicant: 

Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 

77 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge, 

MA 02114. Instrument: Low noise laser 

system. Manufacturer: Shanghai 

Precilasers Technology Co., Ltd., China. 

Intended Use: The instrument is 

intended to be used for Sodium 

potassium molecules confined in optical 

dipole traps. Sodium potassium 

molecules are fermionic molecules 

possessing large electric dipole moment. 

Clouds of sodium-23 and potassium-40 

atoms are first laser-cooled into suitable 

ultracold temperatures and loaded into 

optical dipole traps. A two-photon 

Raman process using the laser system to 

be imported then binds pairs of sodium23 and potassium-40 atoms into deeply 

bound molecules in their absolute 

ground state. Direct control of quantum 

states of molecules is difficult owing to 

the structural complexity of molecules. 

Binding molecules from laser-cooled 

and well-controlled atoms provides a 

more feasible alternative to controlling 

and manipulating quantum states of 

molecules. Justification for Duty-Free 

Entry: According to the applicant, there 

are no instruments of the same general 

category manufactured in the United 

States. Application accepted by 

Commissioner of Customs: August 27, 

2024. 

Docket Number: 24–029. Applicant: 

Harvard University, 1033 Massachusetts 

Avenue, Cambridge, MA 02138. 

Instrument: Narrow Line-width laser. 

Manufacturer: Shanghai Precilasers 

Technology Co., Ltd., China. Intended 

Use: The narrow linewidth (<2kHz), 

ultralow noise (intensity and phase), 

large tuning range (>1nm) seed laser at 

1591 nm will be used as a seed to be 

doubled down to 795 nm. The seed laser 

will be used in a quantum physics 

experiment at Harvard for laser cooling 

and trapping experiments for Rubidium 

atoms to explore quantum physics 

research. The research work enabled by 

this system is part of the training of 

graduate students, undergraduate 

students, and postdoctoral research 

fellows. Justification for Duty-Free 

Entry: According to the applicant, there 

are no instruments of the same general 

category manufactured in the United 

States. Application accepted by 

Commissioner of Customs: August 23, 

2024. 

Docket Number: 24–030. Applicant: 

University of Michigan, Naval 

Architecture and Marine Engineering, 

West Hall RM 126, 1085 S University 

Avenue, Ann Arbor, MI 48109. 

Instrument: Wave Generator System. 

Manufacturer: Van Halteren 

Technologies Boxtel BV, Netherlands. 

Intended Use: The instrument is 

intended to be used to study ship 

motions in water waves. Ship models in 

fresh water are to be investigated. The 

experiments to be conducted will 

involve the creation of model scale 

ocean waves. The objective is an 

engineering understanding of wave 

mechanics and the response of ship 

metrics. Justification for Duty-Free 

Entry: According to the applicant, there 

are no instruments of the same general 

category manufactured in the United 

States. Application accepted by 

Commissioner of Customs: April 10, 

2024. 

Docket Number: 24–031. Applicant: 

University of Chicago, 929 E 57th Street, 

GCIS ESB41, Chicago, IL 60637. 

Instrument: Fiber Laser. Manufacturer: 

PreciLasers, China. Intended Use: The 

instrument is intended to be used to 

study the Cold molecular Nuclear TimeReversal Experiment (CeNTREX), a 

collaborative physics experiment 

between University of Massachusetts 

Amherst, Columbia University, Yale 

University, University of Chicago, and 

Argonne National Laboratory. The goal 

of the CeNTREX project is to shed light 

on the reasons for why there is more 

matter than antimatter in the Universe 

through the measurement of properties 

of the thallium-205 nucleus. 

Justification for Duty-Free Entry: 

According to the applicant, there are no 

instruments of the same general 

category manufactured in the United 

States. Application accepted by 

Commissioner of Customs: August 27, 

2024. 

Docket Number: 24–032. Applicant: 

University of California, Santa Barbara, 

2509 Broida Hall, Santa Barbara, CA 

93106–9530. Instrument: Low Noise 

Laser Amplifier. Manufacturer: 

Shanghai Precilaser Technology Co., 

Ltd., China. Intended Use: The 

instrument is intended to be used in a 

cold atom experiment at the University 

of California, Santa Barbara, for optical 

trapping and manipulation of cold 

lithium-7 atoms. It will be seeded by 

100 nW 1064 laser and will produce 100 

W output power. The low relative 

intensity noise (RIN) of this laser 

amplifier is critical, because the 

intensity noise contributes a lot to the 

stability of the optical traps, and the 

atom interferometry experiment is very 

sensitive to the noise of the optical 

traps. Justification for Duty-Free Entry: 

According to the applicant, there are no 

instruments of the same general 

category manufactured in the United 

States. Application accepted by 

Commissioner of Customs: September 

17, 2024. 

Docket Number: 24–033. Applicant: 

Harvard University, 17 Oxford Street, 

Jefferson 158, Cambridge, MA 02138. 

Instrument: High Power Single 

Frequency Fiber Amplifier. 

Manufacturer: Connet Laser Technology 

Co., Ltd., China. Intended Use: The high 

power (30 W), single frequency fiber 

amplifier system 1908 nm will be used 

in a quantum physics experiment at 

Harvard for optical tweezer trapping of 

rubidium-87 atoms. The available laser 

power will allow many more of these 

atoms (thousands) to be controlled than 

previously demonstrated (hundreds). 

This platform will allow the study of 

larger quantum systems with properties 

and fidelities far exceeding smaller 

systems. Justification for Duty-Free 

Entry: According to the applicant, there 

are no instruments of the same general 

category manufactured in the United 

States. Application accepted by 

Commissioner of Customs: September 

18, 2024. 

Dated: October 23, 2024.
