By 2010 production capability for high density IC chips will be achievable<br />

by application of manufacturing technologies and methods similar to those<br />

used in the semiconductor industry.<br />

—————<br />

Yield and manufacturability of known good die can be established and<br />

costs understood.<br />

—————<br />

The 2010 capability can be used to produce chips with speeds of 50 GHz or<br />

higher and densities of 1-3 million JJs per cm 2 .<br />

—————<br />

Beyond the 2010 time frame, if development continues, a production<br />

capability for chips with speeds of 250 GHz and densities comparable with<br />

today’s CMOS is achievable.<br />

—————<br />

Total Investment over five-year period: $125 million.
