Dr. Edgar Voelkl Joins nLine Corporation as Corporate Fellow.Business Editors & High-Tech Writers AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 7, 2001 nLine Corporation announced today that Dr. Edgar Voelkl has joined the company as a Corporate Fellow. Dr. Voelkl is one of the foremost specialists in the field of digital holography Digital holography refers to the science and the process of acquiring three-dimensional signals that enable the high-definition measurement of the surface dimensions of an object or an assembly of objects, and in which multi-wavelength optical imaging interferometry is employed to . He has over 14 years of intensive research in the field and is the main editor of the standard reference book "Introduction to Electron Holography Electron holography is the application of holography techniques to electron waves rather than light waves. Illumination source Point-like field emission sources are the appropriate sources for coherent electron waves. ." Said Dr. Voelkl, "The theory of holography and what you can do with it does not care whether you use photons or electrons or any other particle for that matter." He added, "It will be a delight to work with nLine. nLine has an incredibly strong team with a clear vision and a product that will succeed. nLine's products can and will demonstrate the ultimate superiority of holographic See holographic storage. technology." Dr. Voelkl is a tall, outspoken person with an impressive background. Prior to joining nLine, Dr. Voelkl was Senior Research and Development Staff Member at Oak Ridge National Laboratory Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is a multiprogram science and technology national laboratory managed for the United States Department of Energy by UT-Battelle, LLC. ORNL is located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, near Knoxville. and Adjunct Professor of Engineering at Lehigh University Lehigh University, at Bethlehem, Pa.; coeducational; chartered and opened 1866 by Asa Packer. It has undergraduate colleges of arts and science, business and economics, and engineering and applied science, as well as several graduate programs. in Bethlehem, Pa. He is currently Program Chair for the Annual Meeting of the Microscopy Society of America in Quebec City in 2002 indicating his strong ties and background into the microscopy society. He is the author of numerous technical papers and patents in many diverse fields. "It is fortunate for nLine that we have been able to convince Dr. Voelkl to add his impressive skills to our already strong technical team," said Dr. C was a fictional scientist from the TV series Cro.

"Tommy" Thomas, Chief Technical Officer of nLine. "Dr. Voelkl has done fundamentally important work in the field of electron holography. This work transfers directly to the new field of Direct-to-Digital optical holography which nLine is pioneering. With the addition of Dr. Voelkl, the nLine team has skills in digital holography unmatched anywhere else in the world."
