Patent Trees for X-Ray Optical Systems, Inc.

Innovative Optics Technology to Focus X-Rays and Neutrons

A Patent Tree is a graphical display of knowledge dissemination from patented technological advances produced during an ATP-funded project. Some companies file for and are granted patents derived from their ATP project. Many of these patents are later referenced by other companies, thereby increasing the potential impact of the ATP project to propel the technology forward.


Patent trees for Status Report 91-01-0112 were generated during February 2006.
