Bob - From JMAR's annual report: 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 .....

Perhaps you didn't do your patent search properly.

Yes - there are other people working on point source. My comment refered to the fact that another point source won't be exactly like JMAR's because JMAR's point source is patented.

And by the way -- where does it say in Cymer's annual report (or any other source) that they are working on X-ray? (And no, I don't mean EUV or "soft x-ray"). I just looked, and I didn't see it. What I DID see in several places was this sentence: "In the future, the Company will likely experience competition from other technologies, such as X-ray, electron beam and ion projection processes."

I am ready to take a break from SI for Thanksgiving. I hope everyone has a nice holiday.
