Interference No. 105,313
Tomita v. Godil
2. Junior party Tomita is involved in this interference on the basis of its application
10/003,054, filed December 6, 2001.
3. Senior party Godil is involved in this interference on the basis of its Patent No.
6,169,624 B1, issued from application 09/372,649, filed August 11, 1999.
4. The single count, Count 1, is as follows:
Claim 25 of Tomita’s Application 10/003,054
or
Claim 1 of Godil’s Patent No. 6,169,624 B1
5. Claim 25 of Tomita’s involved application reads as follows:
A reflective light processing element capable of modifying at least on
characteristic of an optical beam, comprising:
a plurality of wide reflective surfaces, the wide reflective surfaces being
substantially coplanar;
a plurality of narrow reflective surfaces, the narrow reflective surfaces
being substantially coplanar, the narrow reflective surfaces facing substantially a
same direction as the wide reflective surfaces, the narrow reflective surfaces
alternatingly arranged with the wide reflective surfaces, the narrow reflective
surfaces and the wide reflective surfaces defining a plurality of gaps between and
normal to the narrow reflective surfaces and the wide reflective surfaces; and
a plurality of compensating reflective surfaces, the compensating reflective
surfaces being substantially coplanar, the compensating reflective surfaces facing
substantially the same direction as the narrow reflective surfaces and the wide
reflective surfaces, the compensating reflective surfaces being positioned in each
gap between the narrow reflective surfaces and the wide reflective surfaces, each
compensating reflective surface being at least as wide as each gap;
wherein the wide reflective surfaces are capable of a displacement in a
direction normal to the narrow reflective surfaces and compensating reflective
surfaces, the displacement of the wide reflective surfaces capable of modifying at
least one characteristic of the incident optical beam.
