ISBN 978-5-91326-179-3 The International Symposium ”Nanostructures: Physics and Technology” is held annually since 1993. The first Symposium was initiated by Prof. Zh. Alferov and Prof. L. Esaki who are its permanent co-chairs. More detailed information on the Symposium is presented on the World Wide Web http://www.ioffe.ru/NANO2012/ The Proceedings include extended abstracts of invited talks and contributed papers to be presented at the Symposium. By tradition this book is published before the beginning of the meeting. The volume was composed at the St Petersburg Academic University from electronic files submitted by the authors. When necessary these files were converted into the Symposium style. Only minor technical corrections were made by the composers. Design and layout: N. Vsesvetskii Desk editor: E.

In the past decade, significant advances have been achieved for commercializing the technology. For example, several PEM fuel cell buses are currently rated at the technical readiness stage of full-scale validation in realistic driving environments and have met or closely met the ultimate 25,000-h target set by the U.S. Department of Energy. So far, Toyota has sold more than 4000 Mirai PEM fuel cell vehicles (FCVs). Over 30 hydrogen gas stations are being operated throughout the U.S. and over 60 in Germany. In this review, we cover the material, design, fundamental, and manufacturing aspects of PEM fuel cells with a focus on the portable, automobile, airplane, and space applications that require careful consideration in system design and materials.

    DRAFT Office of Basic Energy Sciences Accomplishments FY 1994 DRAFT Major Facilities Construction Highlights Advanced Photon Source Semiannual Review of Advanced Photon Source Proiect (APS) A Construction Project Management Review of the APS Project was conducted at Argonne National Laboratory on November 15-17, 1994 by the Office of Basic Energy Sciences and the Office of Management. The Review Committee consisted of Mr. James Carney, Construction Management Support Division, Chairman; Robert A. Zich, Acquisition and Assistance Management Division; Office of Basic Energy Sciences' Drs. Albert E. Evans, Frederick A. Koomanoff, William T. Oosterhuis, and Walter M. Polansky, together with eleven peer reviewers from DOE Laboratories. Also present were Mr. Matthew Cole from the Office of Environment, Safety, and Health Technical Support, Dr. Bal Mahajan of the Office of Performance Assessment, and Edward F. Koch from the Office of Field Management. The Committee is pleased to report that the APS Project is meeting budget ($811.9 Million Total Project Cost) and time schedules. Construction of the accelerator should be complete by January 1995. All construction, now mostly office and laboratory space, should be completed by February 1996. Commissioning, now underway, should-be complete well in advance of the December 1996 date scheduled for the start of routine operation. Development of Non-Polluting Process for Cleaning Metal Receives Award by the State of Illinois The Advanced Photon Source (APS) scientists, engineers, and technicians have combined their efforts and ideas to develop an alternate process for chemically cleaning aluminum-alloy vacuum chamber sections prior to their installation into the APS. The result of their efforts was-the elimination of 3,000 gallons of hazardous chemical waste per month and an estimated cost savings for waste removal of $300,000 in the first year.
