U.S. Photonics buys property near JVIC
Abstract:
The Springfield-based nanotechnology company purchased the 10,000-square-foot building at 521 Boonville - right across the street from Jordan Valley Innovation Center - for an undisclosed amount from Nick Sibley of Nick Sibley Music. The sale closed Jan. 31.
U.S. Photonics uses ultra-fine lasers to create tiny micromachines and nanomachines with potential applications in the biomedical and defense fields. Zweerink said significant vibrations associated with the lasers warranted a single-story building. Proximity to JVIC was also a priority, he said.
