`
`The information in this presentation represents a small portion of the work carried out by myself
`and colleagues at Symmorphix Inc. in Sunnyvale CA from 1998 to 2007. Over the course of that time
`more than $100M in venture funding, earned income and private funds was
`i nvested and re-invested in the development of the dense, amorphous dielectric films
`described in this and other presentations that can be found at www.edemaray.com
`
`Symmorphix carried out many funded, purchased and grant supported work that lead to
`more than 50 allowed patents in the areas of equipment, process, materials and devices
`employing RF biased reactive deposition of dielectric films using pulsed DC processes.
`More than 50 patents were granted world wide and are now owned by Demaray LLC.
`Since 2007, I have worked to extend applications of the basic patents to new areas such
`as high index films and devices for application to solar energy and efficient coupling of light
`i nto ands out of LEDs, LDs, OLED devices and optical fiber. The Symmorphix patents as well as
`more recent applications are owned by Demaray LLC and are available for license.
`
`This presentation represents some of the information that was developed in the areas of
`encapsulation and barrier films as well as planar optical and electronic devices. My thanks to all
`the great folks, employees, customers, investors and associates for the great results
`evidenced in this and more particularly, work that is in progress.
