Research abstract

The primary goal of the preceding Phase I program was to demonstrate the feasibility of developing commercially viable products from our technological innovation that enables unprecedentedly high energy efficiency generation of super-intense EUV-x-ray beams via Metastable Innershell Molecular State. We have successfully met the Phase I goal by demonstrating the feasibility, and are now ready for fabricating and testing the Phase II prototype generators that will play vital roles in convincing private investors for equity investment, and in fabricating mass-produced Phase III commercial product generators. Based on the Phase I success, two classes of prototype/premarket products will be built: 1) Explosive Driven EUV-x-ray Generators for generating pulsed high energy (photon pulse energy > 1 kJ) EUV-soft-x-ray beams in partnership with Los Alamos National Lab, and 2) Accelerator Driven EUV-x-ray Generators for generating super-intense (photon flux power > 100 W) CW EUV-soft-x-ray beams. Based on the contact with private investors, with our prototypes in hand during Phase II, we will be able to secure Series A investment via private placement for expediting commercialization and licensing deal. In addition, during Phase II we will design marketable generators for continuing into Phase III, which will enable us to secure Series B investment.
