Lovett’s research is focused on the analysis of coal fly ash with inductively coupled plasmas and metal-chelate
chromatography. David Nurok of Indiana UniversityPurdue University received one of the •$500 grants for research in TLC. Jon Maple of the University of New Mexico, whose work is in the area of laserinduced techniques, received the other $500 award. gas
SACP Awards Starter Grants The Society for Analytical Chemists of Pittsburgh (SACP) has announced the 1981 recipients of two $3500 and two $500 starter grants. The grants were established in 1980 to aid new professors and to promote the education of graduate students in analytical
chemistry. The $3500 grants were awarded to Joseph Wang of New Mexico State University and Raymond Lovett of North Dakota State University. Wang’s research interests include the development of solid electrode techniques using hydrodynamic modulation voltammetry and the development of continuous flow analyzers.

The National Research and Resource Facility for Submicron Structures (NRRFSS) at Cornell University was officially dedicated on Oct. 16 in Ithaca, N.Y. Completed in August 1981, the $3.8 million, two-story building contains 7500 square feet of laboratory space “clean” with regard to air, vibration, and electromagnetic interference. Established in 1977 with a $5 million grant from the National Science Foundation, the NRRFSS is the only microstructure science laboratory that is available to researchers from other universities, government, and industry. Research at the NRRFSS will be carried out in the general areas of submicrometer lithography, fabrication and growth of thin-film materials, device design and fabrication, and device physics and materials characterization. The micrographs above were obtained by researchers at the NRRFSS. The upper figure is an intact tobacco mosaic virus and the lower is a pattern etched into a NaCI film by a 0.5-nm-diameter electron beam. Both micrographs are shown at the same magnification (1.7 million times). Using words of the size illustrated in the lower figure, the entire “Encyclopedia Britannica” could be written on a postage stamp.
