Chen:

Currently we are generating sub-micron grating with very high aspect ratio
for Los Alamos Lab using some of the proprietary technique that we have
developed at Norsam Technologies. We are publishing two papers on this topic
in HARMST Conference in Japan 13-15th June,1999 and SPIE Conference. Our
technique is going to be a commercial technique to generate sub-20nm grating
with 1:25 aspect ratios features with 150nm periodicity in metals. If you
have any more questions on this issue please feel free to contact me. Thank
you.

Regards
Jayant
