Company Presentations from Startup/Emerging Nanotech Ventures: (20 Minutes Each)

Moderator : Bo Varga, Nanosig

2:20-2:40
NanoSpire : Mark LeClair, CTO.
A nanoscale workstation for high speed fabrication of three dimensional nanostructures via annealing, cutting, doping, drilling, extrusion, and welding. Goal is 1 meter/second at 100nm resolution and 1 cm/second at 1nm resolution.
2:40-3:00
AtomOne: Gadgil Prasad, CTO.
A new Atomic Layer Disposition System, which can efficiently deposit nanolayer materials on 200mm silicon wafers and can complete at .3 nanometer resolution 1 write cycle per second, for microelectronics, optoelectronics, flat panel displays, nanomaterials, nanostructures, LEDs & laser (on any topography).
3:00-3:20
Coffee Break
3:20-3:40
NanoMed Pharmaceuticals: Stephen C. Benoit, CEO. Nanotemplate Engineering TM - a proprietary, reproducible and scalable manufacturing process that consistently yeilds well-defined, uniform, solid nanoparticles < 100 nanometers in diameter. Can be engineered to contain small molecules, peptides, proteins, plasmid DNA, and sensors. Used to develop novel nano- particle based drug delivery systems that enable the development of new drugs and vaccines to specific tissues and cells, and that enhance the bio-availability of poorly water-soluble drugs.
3:40-4:00
Nanocrystal Imaging Corporation : Rameshwar Bhargava, CEO.
Confinement of a single atom/ion in a nanocrystal cage (Quantum Confined Atoms) enables nanophosphors with light output equivilant to phosphors 1,000x larger - this enables applications such as digital x-ray imaging.
4:00-4:20

C Sixty, Inc. : Uri Sagman, President.
Nanomedicine: Recent developments in Fullerene and Carbon Nanotube Technology.

4:20-4:40
Applied Nanotech : Greg Monty Generate innovative products and applications using carbon anotubes, metalized anoparticles, silicon nanocrystals, and nanowire. Applications include field emission displays, artificial dielectric materials, high intensity light sources, densely packednanowires, & decontamination biological agents.
