  1. The Company • Mission Statement: “To implement Quantum Mechanics in the world of Semiconductor Fabrication & Information Technology” • Has exclusive rights to a patented new way to design computer chips • To overcome the limitations of existing technology • Ownership: • Caltech- JPL/NASA - 30% • Quantumatics Llc - 70% 212288

  2. What is the problem that semiconductor chip manufacturing is about to face?

  3. Lithography is a process to transfer circuit images onto substrates The Challenges • Miniaturization will push optical lithography to sub 57 nanometer resolution by 2005 • Using existing techniques for such design needs is cost prohibitive • Advancements in chip design and material science by themselves, may not be sufficient 212288

  4. What is our answer to the problem?

  5. Existing Technology QuantumaticsTM’ Technology The Technology • Miniaturization depends on the distance between the trough and the peak • By “entangling” multiple photons, Quantumatics will be able to reduce distance between the trough and the peak To achieve the same degree of miniaturization, existing technology will have to use ultra-small wavelength laser systems that are very costly 212288

  6. How does our technology provide a compelling solution?

  7. The Value Proposition • Quantumatics proposes a technology to overcome the barrier in such a manner that the • Chip makers will be able to: • Make more powerful chips from the same wafer • Save capital equipment costs • Make more chips • Reduce production costs • Our solution is to retrofit existing equipments and make them ready for the next technology node • Cost saving of ~ $60 M per fab plant per year 212288

  8. Quantumatics has exclusive rights to quantum lithography - a breakthrough and patented technique to make powerful computer chips for tomorrow’s Information Technology needs. We will now define our target market...

  9. These are the two main types of machines that deal with patterning Masks or reticles are used to transfer the image of the chip’s design onto the wafer.
