A -- BASIC RESEARCH WORK SOL IPO-LIC:95-J060. POC Send the required information to Jerome Jay Garcia, Industrial Partnership Office, MS C334, P.O. Box 1663, Los Alamos, NM 87545. The University of California, which operates the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) under contract to the Department of Energy, solicits interest from companies wishing to license, develop and market a unique technology for the detection of counterfeit currency. The instrument can discriminate among: (1) genuine $100 bills printed during the 1960s & 1970s; (2) new genuine $100 bills; and (3) the elusive high grade counterfeit $100 notes printed and distributed in Europe and South America. With further development, one can reduce the size of the entire package to fit into a standard briefcase, thus making it easily portable for field use. Interested organizations must possess existing capabilities in manufacturing, marketing and support services in the domestic marketplace. Any organization with interests in the above mentioned areas must respond with a statement of intent describing: (1) the organization's technical expertise, (2) manufacturing and marketing capabilities, (3) financial resources (e.g., annual report or corporate resume) and, (4) motivation for participating in this program. The statement must be dated within 30 calendar days of the date of this notice. (247)
