Remember Dr Lebby stated he did not think the PDK development process was taking any longer for Lightwave’s polymer technology than the typical PDK for electronic silicon photonics. February is at a minimum the 9th month that Lightwave Logic has been working on completing the PDKs with multiple large foundries as well as smaller specialty foundries.
We have to be very close to completing this work. Since Jan 21st, the stock has been building a very nice base even though short interest has been rising. There are enough buyers to absorb the short selling, in my opinion! This is extremely bullish.
There's no way that another industry veteran, Dr Zyskind, would join the team as Head of Engineering if there wasn't anything commercially viable to engineer. The material (goo) and products planned IMO must be commercially viable and attractive to the subject matter experts to attract more top tier talent known for bringing things over the finish line. They have reputations to protect after all.
