Employer Information

Boise
Technology, Inc. is a
small, scientific research and development company. We have
recently opened a brand new state-of-the-art research facility near
Boise Idaho with an ultrafast laser laboratory and a chemistry
laboratory. This is a small informal setting, similar to what you
would expect in an academic research group. We do fundamental
research that we expect will lead to a commercially profitably
product. Our current focus in the laboratory is the
characterization of the physical and chemical processes that
influence biphasic chemical reactions. Studies are being done that
are related to phase boundarys such as liquid/liquid, vapor/liquid,
liquid/solid, and vapor/solid. Boise Technology is located in the
beautiful Intermountain West, in the Boise, Idaho
area.
