This center has successfully commercialized x-ray research by carving a product niche among the biggest manufacturers in the analytic instrument business. The ability to reflect and focus x-rays permit scientists to achieve remarkably high resolution when measuring minute objects. Experiments should begin soon on the compact x-ray laser, an instrument necessary for the success of the Strategic Defense Initiative. In addition to defense applications, advanced x-ray technology is used to detect trace materials in substances and would provide simpler, safer medical testing. Applications include:

• Atomic Layer Epitaxy (ALE)
• MultiLayer X-ray Optics
• Leading edge technology in X-ray imaging
• X-ray laser technology
• Thin film technology and diagnostics
• Bright x-ray sources
• Electronic x-ray detectors
• Damage resistant nano structures
• Pure silicon production

• MOXTEK

• TechniScan
