Applications may be examined between 8:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. in Room 4211, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC. 

*Docket Number:*                     01-001.                     *Applicant:*                     St. Louis Science Center, 5050 Oakland Avenue, St. Louis, MO 63110.                     *Instrument:*                     Universal Planetarium, Universarium Model IX.                     *Manufacturer:*                     Carl Zeiss, Germany.                     *Intended Use:*                     The instrument is a planetarium which will be used as part of an interactive educational program to teach visitors to the center about human space habitation and space exploration.                     *Application accepted by Commissioner of Customs:*                     January 9, 2001.                 

*Docket Number:*                     01-002.                     *Applicant:*                     The University of Texas at Austin, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Welch Hall, Room 3.202, Austin, TX 78712.                     *Instrument:*                     Electron Microscope, Model JEM-2010F.                     *Manufacturer:*                     JEOL Ltd., Japan.                     *Intended Use:*                     The instrument is intended to be used to study shape and morphology of small nanoparticles to determine crystal structure and defects of nanoparticles and the crystalline structure of polymers and its aggregates. In addition, the instrument will be used for studies of the following: (1) Binding of nanoparticles to specific sites on nanoparticles, (2) crystal structure and chemical composition of nanoparticles of oxides, (3) friction and defects on nanodevices including mechanical, electronic and photonic, (4) chemical composition and interbond distance on semiconductor and metallic quantum dots, and (5) chemical shifts and bonding in composite, polymer, metal and nanoparticle materials. The objectives of these investigations are the discovery and applications of new properties of nanoparticles, semiconductors, polymers and metals. The instrument will also be used to provide hands-on training and utilization for graduate students in chemistry, engineering and physics. Application accepted by Commissioner of Customs: January 9, 2001.                 

*Docket Number:*                     01-003.                     *Applicant:*                     Children's Medical Center of Dallas, 1935 Motor Street, Dallas, TX 75235.                     *Instrument:*                     Electron Microscope, Model H-7500-1.                     *Manufacturer:*                     Hitachi, Japan.                     *Intended Use:*                     The instrument is intended to be used to examine predominantly human tissue biopsies as part of a diagnostic workup and study of human disease during the teaching of pathology residents.                     *Application accepted by Commissioner of Customs:*                     January 12, 2001.
