	An Interview with Art Conservation Scientist M. Susan Barger (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		To analyze a piece of art, you need to be good scientist and know a great deal about not only art, but also about the technology and history of materials.
		Curators, conservators, or art dealers may not be able to describe their needs in scientific language; conservation scientists often must pinpoint questions and communicate findings in a way that clients understand.
		The materials in some artwork may be unstable, but they are part of the object, and not something you can change.

	NOVEL, LOW-COST METHOD FOR FABRICATION OF NANOSTRUCTURED MATERIALS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The process allows for directed growth and, because there is no addition of a molecular template to direct the growing crystal, a high purity material that is electrically continuous over a microscopic length scale without the need of further processing to remove organic or other contaminants is the result.
		The materials that result from this process can be transferred to a number of flat conductive or insulating substrates and are compatible with the CMOS and other semiconductor nanofabrication methodologies.
		The researchers have used this method both to develop new semiconducting and photoconductive materials, such as a never-before produced cobalt-based material (that cannot be made by conventional methods), as well as novel nanoscale architectures of materials currently used in manufacturing products such as copper and tin oxides.
