- Description
- Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), operated by Los Alamos National Security, LLC under contract with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is seeking one or more industrial partners to assist in advancing and commercializing LANLs new class of scintillator materials. Partnerships may take the form of Cooperative Research & Development Agreements (CRADA) and/or commercial licenses. Commercial licensees will have the option to obtain, up to and including, an exclusive license to the intellectual property in a pre-negotiated, defined field of use for reasonable compensation. CRADAs are expected to include funds-in to the Lab. President Bush signed a $3.4 billion port-security bill that requires new monitors to be deployed at the nation's 22 busiest ports by the end of 2007. The Department of Homeland Security's plan to spend $1.2 billion deploying next-generation nuclear-detection equipment at U.S. ports and border crossings cannot be justified, given test results that showed current devices are unreliable. LANLs nanophosphor composites are pushing conventional scanning & detection technologies to new and improved heights. These new scintillator materials could be used for large volume, low cost radiation detection equipment.
