Dale - This is from an earlier post of mine (#4004):
Some time ago, I was asked how the same laser could be used for Light Knife as for XRL. I got an answer to that question today. They are both based on the Britelight technology. The Light Knife uses some of the Britelight technology, but the power level and wave length are different. XRL uses more MODULES of the Britelight -- from 8 to 16, while micromachining would use only 1 module. Britelight technology offers much higher power with superior beam quality than anything else available today.

This is from the annual report: (Page 6 - Main section)
"JMAR's point source X-ray lithography technology utilizes our patented Britelight high-power, picosecond-class, diode-pumped solid state laser technology to generate the X-rays required to print microscopic circuits finer than the 0.25 micron feature size of today's state-of-the-art optical lithography processes."

So from the above I conclude that the Britelight technology is adaptable to various uses, and produces various wave lengths of light -- from that suitable for the Light Knife to that needed for generating X-rays for XRL. It would seem to me that there would be a big demand for technology such as this -- not just a one-use technology, but a technology that could be adapted to many, many uses and devices. I think once the adaptability is understood, we'll see a lot more interest in JMAR.
