An interesting article in the current Fortune magazine(Dec8,1997)titled: "The race to build and staff America's chip plants." The article doesn't mention JMAR by name but I did find the following section of interest: "The next step in feature size is 0.18 micron. Somewhere past 2001 lies 0.10 micron, but that could prove beyond the limits of photolithography, in which circuits images are projectedonto a photosensitive layer that has been deposited on the silicon wafer. Chip -component dimensions have long been below the wavelength of visible light,and the industry has been working its way along the spectrum to shorter and shorter ultraviolet light waves. Now at DUV, "deep" ultraviolet, it'sheading toward EUV, or "extreme"ultraviolet, which is short enough also to be called "soft X-ray. Before many more years, lithography will run out of room on the optical spectrum. But listen closely and you can hear the hoof beats of a technology cavalry ready to substitute X-rays,ion beams, whatever." I would recommend everyone interested in this subject to get a copy of this issue of Fortune.(:>)
