Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, et. al.; Notice of 
Decision on Application for Duty-Free Entry of Scientific Instruments

    This is a decision pursuant to Section 6(c) of the Educational, 
Scientific, and Cultural Materials Importation Act of 1966 (Pub. L. 89-
651, as amended by Pub. L. 106-36; 80 Stat. 897; 15 CFR part 301). On 
June 24, 2021,the Department of Commerce published a notice in the 
Federal Register requesting public comment on whether instruments of 
equivalent scientific value, for the purposes for which the instruments 
identified in the docket(s) below are intended to be used, are being 
manufactured in the United States. See Application(s) for Duty-Free 
Entry of Scientific Instruments, 86 FR33223-24, June 24, 2021 (Notice). 
We received no public comments.
    Docket Number: 19-018. Applicant: Rutgers, The State University of 
New Jersey, Physics and Astronomy Department, 136 Frelinghuysen Road, 
Piscataway, NJ 08854. Instrument: Tube Furnace, Box furnace, Sic 
Heater, MoSi2 Heater. Manufacturer: He Nan Nobody Materials Science and 
Technology, China. Intended Use: According to the applicant, the 
instrument will be used to study various physical properties in 
strongly correlated materials such as high-temperature superconductors, 
topological insulators or multiferroics. New materials will be 
conducted that have unique electric and magnetic properties using 
various crystal growth techniques such as flux, solid reaction, or 
chemical vapor transport. To identify grown materials X-ray diffraction 
and Laue diffraction will be employed. High-quality crystals will be 
further investigated with a physical property measurement system and a 
magnetic property measurement system to obtain their electric and 
magnetic properties in varying conditions of temperature, electric and 
magnetic fields.
    Docket Number: 20-001. Applicant: Rutgers, The State University of 
New Jersey, Physics and Astronomy Department, 136 Frelinghuysen Road, 
Piscataway, NJ 00854. Instrument: CZekalski furnace (Crystal grower). 
Manufacturer: Sipat Co., Ltd., China. Intended Use: According to the 
applicant, the instrument will be used to study the physical properties 
of oxide and/or metallic materials and various physical phenomena based 
on strongly correlated materials such as high temperature 
superconductors, topological insulators or multiferroics. Electronic 
and/or magnetic properties of new oxide and/or metallic materials will 
be investigated. The growth of new materials will be conducted which 
have unique electric and magnetic properties using purchased crystal 
grower. To identify grown materials X-ray diffraction and Laue 
diffraction will be employed. The magnetic property measurement system 
obtains its electric and magnetic properties in varying conditions of 
temperature, electric and magnetic fields.
    Docket Number: 20-013. Applicant: Fermi Research Alliance, FRA. 
Instrument: Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS-II) Upper Cold Mass 
Assemblies and Vacuum Vessels. Manufacturer: Wuxi Creative Technologies 
Company LTD WXCX, China. Intended Use: According to the applicant, the 
instrument will be used to study the cryomodules that will be used for 
scientific research, including the studies of elementary particles. 
Each assembly is an essential component necessary to build a 
cryomodule. LCLS-II upgrade includes three types of components (1) 
vacuum vessels for the 1.2 GHz cryomodules; (2) cold-mass assemblies 
for the 1.3 GHz; and (3) cold-mass assemblies for the cryomodules. 
These components will also be included in the complete assembly of the 
LCLS-II cryogenic cooling system, which insulates, provides and 
refreshes liquified helium gas. LCLS-II is a planned upgrade project 
for the free-electron laser facility located at SLAC. LCLS-II will 
consist of thirty-five (35) 1.3 GHz and two (2) 3.9 GHz superconducting 
radio frequency (RF) continuous wave (CW) cryomodules that Fermilab and 
Jefferson Lab are producing in collaboration with SLAC. The LCLS-II 
will enable new experiments and research in six broad areas: (1) 
Fundamental dynamics of energy and charge in atoms and molecules; (2) 
catalysis, photo-catalysis, environmental, and coordination chemistry; 
(3) quantum materials; (4) non-scale heterogeneity, fluctuations, and 
dynamics of functional materials; (5) matter in extreme environments; 
and (6) biological function on natural length and time scales.
