...many benefits of applying atom lithography include the creation of high-precision length-standards, or micro-rulers, Thywissen says. Atom lithography also shows a way in which the circuitry that stores information in silicon chips can be etched with much finer detail than is possible under current methods of circuit definition...

...involved in atom lithography through standing wave quenching, working with metastable argon. This process involves selectively removing the internal energy of the atoms necessary to pattern the resist layer on top of the silicon prior to etching. It requires much less laser power and allows more flexibility than former experiments...

...most likely to take their kids to the movies." To keep Bluth from wandering too far into his trademark whimsy, the Fox creative brass kept tight reins on script and character development. They also insisted that he and Goldman give up their old-fashioned Rostrum camera and use Silicon Graphics computers in the studio Fox built for them in Phoenix. Says Goldman: "They pulled Don and me into the 21st century, kicking and screaming...

...boys so nettled about? The good ol' U S of A didn't get to be the economic butt-kicker it undeniably is today by keeping to itself. A McDonald's on every street corner, a pair of blue jeans on every butt. And a little tangle of American silicon on everybody's desk. Take the 80s (please). Bushido was all the rage, Detroit was in the tank ? the Japanese were better at everything, and the American century was over. Take Gung Ho, a culture-clash Ron Howard heart-warmer starring a young Batman (Keaton) and an older Long...

Klein began probing Microsoft's browser-licensing practices partly in response to furious complaints from rival softwaremakers like Netscape. That Silicon Valley company, which is fighting to keep its 60% share of the browser market from being overrun by Microsoft, has so far handed over thousands of pages of documents. As Klein sees it, the ultimate goal in the case is to keep Bill Gates or anyone else from blocking innovation in the markets for software and personal computers. "This is an enormously challenging time in terms of the application of antitrust law to a fast-moving industry," Klein says...
