          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;Andor Technology plc (Andor) will be exhibiting at Pittcon in the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, New Orleans, LA, from March 3-6 at &lt;b&gt;Booth # 4104&lt;/b&gt;. The company will be highlighting their full range of solutions for spectroscopy and the breadth of their OEM capabilities. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The company will take the opportunity to feature the &lt;b&gt;Shamrock-750&lt;/b&gt;; the newest long focal length dual-port spectrograph with scanning capabilities.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Designed to perform to peak efficiency with Andor’s spectrographs, the company’s industry-leading range of cameras will also be on display. This includes the &lt;b&gt;Newton&lt;/b&gt;, the world’s finest EMCCD camera for spectroscopy with USB 2.0 connectivity, low noise electronics, multi-MHz and kHz readout, up to 95% peak Quantum Efficiency (QE), and TE cooling to -100°C, and the &lt;b&gt;iDus InGaAs detector&lt;/b&gt;, with high sensitivity and high resolution offering TE cooling down to -85°C, USB 2.0 interface, 1.7 µm and 2.2 µm sensor options, and 512 or 1024 element linear photodiode arrays (PDA) for NIR Spectroscopy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The booth will be staffed by a number of Andor’s application specialists who will be more than willing to explain the finer points of the equipment, so stop by &lt;b&gt;booth # 4104&lt;/b&gt; to discuss how Andor’s Technology can help you!&lt;/p&gt;

Using Andor products these customers can break new ground by performing experiments that were previously considered impossible. Independently conducted customer research confirms that Andor’s low light solutions are considered world beating. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Established in 1989, Andor&#039;s Corporate Headquarters are in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Operating in a global market, Andor&#039;s US Headquarters opened in Connecticut in 1997. Andor has regional sales offices in Europe and the US. Andor Japan, established in August 2000, handles the company&#039;s Asia / Pacific Operations.  More recently in December 2006, the company opened its first representative office in Beijing, China.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Andor sells its products globally to academic, research and OEM markets directly, through distributors and value added resellers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The company successfully listed onto the London Stock Exchange’s AIM market and commenced dealings in its Ordinary Shares in December 2004 (AND).&lt;/p&gt;

          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;What does Arizona State University have to offer?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Arizona State University is pleased to announce the Professional Science Master’s (PSM) in  Nanoscience degree program.  The program at ASU is part of the national PSM organization featured at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sciencemasters.com&quot; title=&quot;http://www.sciencemasters.com&quot;&gt;http://www.sciencemasters.com&lt;/a&gt; and is listed at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.gradschools.com/&quot; title=&quot;http://www.gradschools.com/&quot;&gt;http://www.gradschools.com/&lt;/a&gt; under a wide range of subject categories. It is also part of the Western Region Graduate Program (&lt;a href=&quot;http://wrgp.wiche.edu&quot; title=&quot;http://wrgp.wiche.edu&quot;&gt;http://wrgp.wiche.edu&lt;/a&gt;) - a program  which allows students from most western states to pay fees at in-state tuition rates.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What is the link between business/industry and ASU?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The collaboration between industry and Arizona State University is very robust. The PSM in Nanoscience program is no exception.  A PSM Advisory Board that includes representatives from organizations across the region will help maintain the link between the program and industry needs.  Additionally, the Advisory Board will foster opportunities for student internships and support and influence the program in other ways beneficial to both parties. With an ever-increasing demand for nanoscience and nanotechnology, the time for professional growth in this area is at hand.  Please take time to consider furthering your/your staff’s education and expertise through the Professional Science Master’s in Nanoscience degree at ASU. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What is a Professional Science Masters Degree in Nanoscience?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The program exists as a partnership between the Department of Physics and the Department of Chemistry &amp;amp; Biochemistry to meet the growing need for skilled nanoscience professionals in industry both regionally and nationally. Although the program is ideal for  recent science graduates, it is especially tailored for working professionals who wish to retrain into nanoscience, nanotechnology, and related areas.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why a degree in nanoscience?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nanoscience is a prime target of both federal funding and high-tech industrial investment.  It is expected to have profound impact on a broad range of technologies such as nanoelectronics, biosensors and nanomedicine over the coming decade.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;How long does the program take?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The PSM degree consists of a 30 credit accelerated (cohort-based) curriculum.  A full time program can be completed in 12 months (including two summer sessions).  A part-time two-year program allows prospective students and their employers flexibility in scheduling studies. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Does this program fit my needs?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The PSM program at ASU has three recommended program options:             Nanomaterials &amp;amp; Nano-electronics, Biophysics &amp;amp; Bionanotechnology, and Biophysics, Biochemistry, and Sensors. You choose the emphasis that works best for you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Where can I find additional information?&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;
          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cabot Corporation is a world leader in fine particles. We have manufactured high surface area materials for over 130 years. Recently Chemical and Engineering News had an issue devoted to nanotechnology. One of the articles listed and discussed the many new firms entering the field of nanoparticles. In that article C&amp;amp;E News referred to Cabot, describing us as venerable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Currently the exciting new field is nanotechnology. Governments are investing heavily in research and development and you can attend at least one conference a week with nano in its title. At one of these conferences a few years ago, the plenary speaker announced that nano particles have reached commercialization and that sales exceeded $20 million in the past year. Of course they ignored that the fact that carbon black sales exceed $4 billion and precipitated silica sales exceed those of carbon black. They also ignored the many, many other fine particle products that go into almost every conceivable materials application.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What is nanotechnology? The numerous topics that are raised under the heading of nanotechnology are one of two types. The first includes very small ordered structures. The approaches to making these ordered structures apparently are also of two different types. One is the more or less conventional construction. Techniques such as the atomic force microscope or extremely resolved photolithography are being used to make micro-machines on an increasingly smaller scale. The other approach is termed &quot;self assembly&quot; and in its most complex form is the way the structures of living things are created. The techniques have in common the fact that the chemistry determines spatial structure.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The second type of topic includes fine particles or fine porous media that are more or less disordered. The varieties include truly disordered fractal particles such as those of aerosols, mono-dispersed spherical particles such as quantum dots, small fibers such as single or multi-wall carbon tubes, and templated porous or multi-phase particles. In general, these types of materials are made by precipitation, exploiting the phenomena of nucleation and growth. The precipitations can be single or multi-step and they can take place in media with low viscosity and therefore rapid mass transfer, such flames, or with high viscosity and therefore slow mass transfer, such as molten salt or polymer matrices.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The first type of topic is the area where the science and the technologies are developing the fastest. However, many new approaches to the second area have recently emerged and often they are ingenious and intriguing. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cabot&#039;s core capabilities are in many aspects of the second type. We have excellent expertise in high temperature aerosol processes in both intellectual understanding and commercial operations. Similarly, we understand dense phase precipitations, with commercial operations using reduction precipitation of tantalum from molten salt and hydrothermal precipitation from aqueous solutions of mixed oxides, as well as large pilot plant operations in silica gelation for aerogels. In all of these areas, we have proprietary technologies that allow us to achieve particles or porous media with unique morphologies.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We also have proprietary technology for creating the desired surface chemistry on high surface are materials. Perhaps the most notable one is our ability to covalently bond organic groups to the surface of most of the many different forms of carbon.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We also understand many of the aspect of deagglomeration or deaggregation. We use both mechanical and chemical approaches to the problem where applicable. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cabot is not a center of expertise for either of the process used in the first type of nano-technology. We have created a research capability in &quot;smart&quot; polymer design and fabrication. We are learning how to exploit such techniques as block copolymer self-ordering. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our research and development programs are very strong in the second type or &quot;conventional&quot; nanotechnolgy. We are also investing in expanding our capabilities in at least some of the &quot;new, hot&quot; areas. We want to work with others to create solutions to materials problems.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;

          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;CSI has developed a unique catalytic coating and an innovative manufacturing process to apply its coating to a substrate that forms the functional element of a catalytic converter. Catalytic converters are the pervasive means of meeting increasingly stringent emissions standards around the world for vehicles, energy production facilities and other applications. Traditional catalytic coating technologies have not appropriately addressed the performance requirements created by these emissions standards at acceptable cost levels.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;CSI&#039;s unique and proprietary Mixed Phase Catalyst (&quot;MPC&quot;) technology is fundamentally different from other approaches, and enables CSI to produce catalyst formulations with superior catalytic performance, a high degree of durability and cost-effectiveness for a wide range of environmental markets. CSI currently sells its products to the world&#039;s leading provider of aftermarket catalytic converters, and major automotive original equipment manufacturers (&quot;OEMs&quot;) have selected CSI&#039;s products for high-volume platforms over products offered by its leading competitors due to the superior performance and cost characteristics of its catalytic coatings. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A catalyst is a substance that facilitates a chemical reaction without being consumed in the reaction itself. Catalyst-based emissions systems are used in a variety of industries to convert pollutants, fumes and odors into innocuous compounds. Today, the largest application for catalyst-based emissions systems is the reduction of hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide emissions from gasoline and diesel vehicles. Catalysts are also used to control emissions in power generation plants, manufacturing operations and other industrial applications. Environmental regulations worldwide have mandated continually decreasing levels of allowable emissions from vehicles, power generation plants and other sources, driving demand for continually increasing numbers of catalysts and higher performance catalysts.&lt;/p&gt;

          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;According to the U.S. government agencies, nanotechnology alone will be a trillion dollar business by the year 2015, and about 1 million employees will be required in U.S. alone. Clean technology, which has become a major application of nanotechnology, had a revenue growth from 55 billion in 2006 to 77.3 billion in 2007, a 40% annual increase. The time to enter this growing industry is now, and the CNCP certification program is designed to equip you with relevant knowledge and practical experience to be successful in the emerging industries.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Certified Nanotechnology &amp;amp; Clean Technology Professional Program will be offered in a 8-week training from August 16- October 4, 2008 in San Jose.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The certificate program is designed to train the participants for professional jobs with an opportunity for advancement in the high growth industries of nanotechnology and clean technology. The certificate classroom/lab training courses will equip you to enter into the emerging nanotech and clean tech industries. Students will be expected to demonstrate their acquired knowledge through problem solving, group discussions, and project development.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In addition to classroom learning and group project research assignment, students are expected to participate in industry seminars which will be held on Thursdays at 11:30 AM - 1:30 PM and complete a hand-on learning coursework on how to use a Scanning Electron Microscope at our training laboratory.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prerequisite: a 4 year degree (Bachelor of Art, Sciences or Engineering) or equivalent with at least 3 years of working experience.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Weekly schedule:&lt;br /&gt;
Saturday 9:00 AM- 5:30 PM  (in classroom)&lt;br /&gt;
Tuesday and Thursday:  7:00 PM- 9:00 PM (online group project collaboration)&lt;br /&gt;

          &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Chemical Industry Vision2020 Technology Partnership (Vision2020) is an industry-led partnership/process among public and private sector stakeholders in the chemical and allied industries. Stakeholders identify common problems and leverage technical expertise and financial resources to develop the critical enabling technologies of the future. Through collaborative efforts among industry, national laboratories, and academia, the Vision2020 Partnership fosters step-change technology innovation, which may be beyond the risk threshold of individual companies. Vision2020 is helping to maintain U.S. leadership as the world&#039;s largest chemical producer.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Vision2020 process was launched in 1996 when company representatives created a Vision for the chemical industry&#039;s future and identified the key technical challenges that need to be overcome to realize that vision. Detailed roadmaps have been developed to outline research needs addressing many of these challenges. The roadmaps are used to guide academic and government funding and research in directions that will benefit the industry. An ongoing review process updates the vision and research priorities.&lt;br /&gt;
Nanotechnology is an important new research area. The chemical industry may be the only industry with R&amp;amp;D capabilities and expertise to commercialize nanotechnology advances. Consequently, the chemical industry should have a voice in the selection of R&amp;amp;D topics pursued by the Federal government. The chemical industry, along with the electronics industry, are the two industries that have the most to benefit from guiding the nanotechnology R&amp;amp;D funding.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Vision2020 is currently working to improve communication with nanotechnology funding agencies to make sure they are focusing on areas relevant to the industry. The systematic research in nanotechnology is just beginning. The infrastructure is forming. The integration of new phenomena into macroscopic systems is not yet being emphasized.&lt;/p&gt;
