gilver re: "OK, Rainer, assuming they need 3 or 4 weeks for one iteration, then there would be testing of the optimized VSCEL until they were satisfied that it has been successful. So, one iteration of trying a new epitaxy and then testing. So, if that doesn't work to their satisfaction, then it would be another 3 or 4 weeks for one iteration and more testing."

Hopefully they can do multiple iterations simultaneously, rather than one at a time sequentially. Seems to me this should be the case, but I don't know this for sure.

Good luck!!
