<p>Located in Broomfield, CO, ​ALD NanoSolutions uses ALD to apply near-perfect, ultrathin films to particles, improving the performance, safety and other characteristics of products (such as lithium-ion batteries), which are commonly used in home electronics. The company was cofounded in 2001 by professor <a href=" "Al" Weimer</a> of chemical and biological engineering and professor <a href=" George</a> of chemistry and biochemistry, along with ����ֱ�� alumni Mike Masterson and Karen Buechler. </p>
<p>“We are excited to merge our talent and resources to create a company with unmatched capabilities and technical know-how," said Dr. Wayne Simmons, CEO of ALD NanoSolutions, in a press release. "Not only that, but we will continue our close collaboration with professors Alan Weimer and Steven George and their research groups at ����ֱ�� Boulder, ushering in a new era of disruptive technology together.”</p>
<p>ALD NanoSolution's relationship with ����ֱ�� Boulder began in 2004 with an exclusive license to five inventions, which has since grown to a portfolio of 17 inventions covered by 42 patent applications worldwide. To this day, ALD NanoSolutions remains one of Venture Partners' longest standing licensees. This has created an ongoing, productive relationship between the university and its spinoff company, explained Weimer in an <a href="/�ٴǻ岹��/2017/02/07/���辱�ԴǴڴ�-���dz��貹�Բ�-������-����-���dzܱ����…;
<p>Venture Partners and Forge Nano are continuing this longstanding relationship with these existing and future patents, covering products that range from improved battery materials for the emerging market and catalytic materials in a range of industries. </p>
