| By means of computer graphics, their model--based on diffusion processes in nonliving chemical systems--produces patterns quite similar to those observed in live bacteria. Rudolph pioneered FOCUS(TM) beam ellipsometry for thin film metrology--its ultra-II(TM) offers the accuracy and repeatability required for the most demanding front-end diffusion processes. The first suggestion that reaction and diffusion processes might lead to stable chemical patterns surfaced in 1952, when the late Alan Turing, a British mathematician, proposed these hypothetical phenomena to explain the genesis of such biological patterns as a zebra's stripes. |
