Scientists at NASA theorize that some 3 1/2 billion years ago, the world was changed forever. The appearance of tiny organisms with the ability to convert sunlight, warmth, water and minerals into protein, carbohydrates, vitamins and amino acids marked the beginning of life. Phytoplankton, the single-cell plants are the basis of all other life forms on planet earth; they are the 'vegetation' of the ocean. Marine Phytoplankton are responsible for making up to 90% of Earth's oxygen.
Marine phytoplankton are the food utilized by some of the world's largest and longest living animals and fish. Blue Whales, humpbacks, baleen whales and more all eat plankton and live between 80-150 years while maintaining great strength and endurance and are sexually active until they die.Tom Harper, a sea farmer in northern British Columbia,...

Quantiscript Delivers on 30nm nano-imprint Templates with QSR-5™
Sherbrooke, Qu?bec, Canada (ContentDesk) November 30, 2005 -- Quantiscript Inc, a leader in development of novel resist solutions for the semiconductor industry, released results demonstrating commercial viability of nano-imprint templates with pattern features down to 30 nanometers, using its novel QSR-5" Resist solution.The International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) describes challenging specifications for the 32nm technology node including limits on Line Edge Roughness (LER) for very dense patterns which cannot be met by todays commercial resist solutions. Quantiscript has developed novel resist solutions that use evaporation and plasma-based deposition techniques to achieve ultra-thin layers of resist down to 30nm, not achievable with todays spin-coated deposition processes. Thin resists have demonstrated benefits in achieving high resolution dense patterns with low LER and are key to achieving the 32nm technology node specifications.Quantiscript patterned its own...
