Dr. Larry Dalton, Distinguished Professor of Chemistry at the George B. Kauffman Professor of Chemistry & Electrical Engineering at the University of Washington and Nobel Prize nominee, talks about his work with polymers, photonics and electro-optics.
Electro-optics and photonics play an enormous role in our lives. However, people know little about them. As Dalton explains, “In the future, electro-optic technology could play a critical role in next generation defense, computer transportation, medicine, entertainment, information technology, communications and energy.”

How do SEC violations of controlling company DBSI Inc. affecting long-term viability and availability of Larry Dalton’s inventions, previously to be marketed through Lumera (LMRA) and now subsidiary of DBSI, called Gigoptix? What is the controlling interest in DBSI, Inc., and why is this investment group not currently accessible to public investors and small investors? This seems to be a very prevalent problem with the best new USA-originated technology. It might be that the USA citizens have really lost control over most key technologies, not only by direct investment, but also, for the most part, by any form of investment or involvement whatsoever, due to the higher levels of motivation of outside-USA based corporations and interests. I would think this situation would be of major concern to USA Department of Defense, NSA, and CIA. Is it?
