Title: Brookhaven National Laboratory technology transfer report, fiscal year 1987

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5192602

The Brookhaven Office of Research and Technology Applications (ORTA) inaugurated two major initiatives. The effort by our ORTA in collaboration with the National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS) has succeeded in alerting American industry to the potential of using a synchrotron x-ray source for high resolution lithography. We are undertaking a preconstruction study for the construction of a prototype commercial synchrotron and development of an advanced commercial cryogenic synchrotron (XLS). ORTA sponsored a technology transfer workshop where industry expressed its views on how to transfer accelerator technology during the construction of the prototype commercial machine. The Northeast Regional utility Initiative brought 14 utilities to a workshop at the Laboratory in November. One recommendation of this workshop was to create a Center at the Laboratory for research support on issues of interest to utilities in the region where BNL has unique capability. The ORTA has initiated discussions with the New York State Science and Technology Commission, Cornell University's world renowned Nannofabrication Center and the computer aided design capabilities at SUNY at Stony Brook to create, centered around the NSLS and the XLS, the leading edge semiconductor process technology development center when the XLS becomes operational in two and a half years. 1 fig.
