Notice of Intent To Grant an Exclusive License

AGENCY: National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

ACTION: Notice of intent to grant exclusive license.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice is issued in accordance with 35 U.S.C. 209(e) and 
37 CFR 404.7(a)(1)(i). NASA hereby gives notice of its intent to grant 
an exclusive license in the United States to practice the inventions 
described and claimed in U.S. Patent No. 7,341,883 titled ``Silicon 
Germanium Semiconductive Alloy and Method Of Fabricating Same,'' NASA 
Case No. LAR-16868-1; U.S. Patent No. 7,514,726 titled ``Graded Index 
Silicon Germanium on Lattice Matched Silicon Germanium Semiconductive 
Alloy,'' NASA Case No. LAR-16872-1; U.S. Patent No. 7,558,371 titled 
``Method of Generating X-Ray Diffraction Data for Integral Detection of 
Twin Defects in Super-Hetero-Epitaxial Materials,'' NASA Case No. LAR-
17044-1; U.S. Patent No, 7,906,358 titled ``Epitaxial Growth of Cubic 
Crystalline Semiconductor Alloys on Basal Plane of Trigonal or 
Hexagonal Crystal,'' NASA Case No. LAR-17185-1; U.S. Patent No. 
8,226,767 titled ``Hybrid Bandgap Engineering for Super-Hetero-
Epitaxial Semiconductor Materials, and Products Thereof,'' NASA Case 
No. LAR-17405-1; U.S. Patent No. 8,257,491 titled ``Rhombohedral Cubic 
Semiconductor Materials on Trigonal Substrate with Single Crystal 
Properties and Devices Based on Such Materials,'' NASA Case No. LAR-
17553-1; U.S. Patent No. 7,769,135 titled ``X-ray Diffraction Wafer 
Mapping Method for Rhombohedral Super-Hetero-Epitaxy,'' NASA Case No. 
LAR-17554-1; U.S. Patent Application No. 14/202,699 titled ``High 
Mobility Transport Layer Structures for Rhombohedral Si/Ge/SiGe 
Devices,'' NASA Case No. LAR-17841-1; U.S. Patent Application No. 14/
204,535 titled ``Double Sided Si(Ge)/Sapphire/III-Nitride Hybrid 
Structure,'' NASA Case No. LAR-17922-1; U.S. Patent No. 8,044,294 
titled ``Thermoelectric Materials and Devices,'' NASA Case No. LAR-
17381-1; and U.S. Patent Application No. 14/279,614 titled ``Integrated 
Multi-Color Light Emitting Device Made with Hybrid Crystal Structure,'' 
NASA Case No. LAR-18133-1, to innoScience, Inc., having its principal 
place of business in Gaithersburg, Maryland. Certain patent rights in 
these inventions have been assigned to the United States of America as 
represented by the Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space 
Administration. The prospective exclusive license will comply with the 
terms and conditions of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR 404.7.

DATES: The prospective exclusive license may be granted unless, within 
fifteen (15) days from the date of this published notice, NASA receives 
written objections including evidence and argument that establish that 
the grant of the license would not be consistent with the requirements 
of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR 404.7. Competing applications completed and 
received by NASA within fifteen (15) days of the date of this published 
notice will also be treated as objections to the grant of the 
contemplated partially exclusive license.
    Objections submitted in response to this notice will not be made 
available to the public for inspection and, to the extent permitted by 
law, will not be released under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 
U.S.C. 552.

ADDRESSES: Objections relating to the prospective license may be 
submitted to Patent Counsel, Office of Chief Counsel, NASA Langley 
Research Center, MS 30, Hampton, VA 23681; (757) 864-3221 (phone), 
(757) 864-9190 (fax).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jennifer L. Riley, Patent Attorney, 
Office of Chief Counsel, NASA Langley Research Center, MS 30, Hampton, 
VA 23681; (757) 864-5057; Fax: (757) 864-9190. Information about other
