Priority Areas for R&D Low-energy e-beams, Xxx Xxxxx and Ion Implantation Sample Clauses

Priority Areas for R&D Low-energy e-beams, Xxx Xxxxx and Ion Implantation. New or modernised accelerators. • High-voltage generator concepts for compact modules. • Insulation materials/technologies for compact accelerator design. • Well-adapted e-beam sources for applications in 3D-shaped products. • Concepts for electron exit windows in order to lower the usable energy below 80 keV. • Enlarged sealed e-beam accelerators with a longer lifetime. • New surfaces with lower X-ray-reflection to reduce shielding. • New developments require the industrialisation of new solutions, like superconducting RF cavities and magnets, and other accelerator components such as cathodes, klystrons, advanced material windows, and so on. • The design of small-footprint, or even portable, accelerators. • The development of compact and highly efficient detection systems, and the implementation of appropriate data-analysis codes. • A more ‘open source’ approach to accelerator design could help make new desktop units suitable for ion-beam applications, lowering overheads and improving reliability. The application of accelerators to industrial processes is broad and highly prevalent. Accelerators are directly used in numerous manufacturing processes, from shrink wrapping of cable insulation and sterilisation of product packaging, to ion-beam implantation applications in the semiconductor industry. For both the Supply Chain interviews and the web-based survey, this proved the strongest positive response, and in general terms forms a significant element of their business models. This contrasts with the National Laboratories, which did not respond positively to the potential of development in the industrial applications area, reflected in discussions at AMICI meetings and workshops. There may be some simple explanations for the apparent discrepancy in these responses:  There are a number of off-the-shelf commercial systems available to address most current application needs in the sphere of industrial processing.  Industrial application accelerators are generally very low beam energies, often below 1 MeV. The machines operate in different beam energy regimes to fundamental research facilities.  The focus for industrial applications is often on serviceability, extended duty cycles and affordability. However, in many cases, similar arguments could be made against machine development in the medical arena, but the National Laboratories appear to have clearer engagement in that application area. With medical applications of accelerators in a positive position w...

  • Selection of Subcontractors, Procurement of Materials and Leasing of Equipment The contractor shall not discriminate on the grounds of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age or disability in the selection and retention of subcontractors, including procurement of materials and leases of equipment. The contractor shall take all necessary and reasonable steps to ensure nondiscrimination in the administration of this contract. a. The contractor shall notify all potential subcontractors and suppliers and lessors of their EEO obligations under this contract. b. The contractor will use good faith efforts to ensure subcontractor compliance with their EEO obligations.

  • Loop Provisioning Involving Integrated Digital Loop Carriers 2.6.1 Where Xxxx has requested an Unbundled Loop and BellSouth uses IDLC systems to provide the local service to the End User and BellSouth has a suitable alternate facility available, BellSouth will make such alternative facilities available to Xxxx. If a suitable alternative facility is not available, then to the extent it is technically feasible, BellSouth will implement one of the following alternative arrangements for Xxxx (e.g. hairpinning): 1. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to any spare copper that exists to the customer premises. 2. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to an existing DLC that is not integrated. 3. If capacity exists, provide "side-door" porting through the switch. 4. If capacity exists, provide "Digital Access Cross Connect System (DACS)- door" porting (if the IDLC routes through a DACS prior to integration into the switch). 2.6.2 Arrangements 3 and 4 above require the use of a designed circuit. Therefore, non- designed Loops such as the SL1 voice grade and UCL-ND may not be ordered in these cases. 2.6.3 If no alternate facility is available, and upon request from Xxxx, and if agreed to by both Parties, BellSouth may utilize its Special Construction (SC) process to determine the additional costs required to provision facilities. Xxxx will then have the option of paying the one-time SC rates to place the Loop.
