The
rules include the following: In 2011, 86 entries were submitted. There were many outstanding micrographs. The work represented in the submitted micrographs covered a wide range of fields including micro mechanical, photonic, and integrated circuit fabrication, chemical and dry etching, carbon nanotube structures, carbon nanotube growth experiments, biological samples, material science experiments and, of course, e-beam, ion beam, and photo lithography experiments. The
panel of judges who selected the award winners were: • Don
Tennant - Cornell There
were six awards: There
were 10 Honorable Mentions. All 2011 Entries (with original
titles) Judges
exercised their prerogative to liberally interpret the award categories,
change the micrograph titles, and even rotate the micrograph if it pleased
them. Title:
