      On April 7, 1994, the Company finalized a $350,000 revolving Line of
      Credit Promissory Note with Growth Funding, Ltd. ("Growth"), a
      wholly-owned subsidiary of Venture, a significant shareholder of the
      Company, with such credit line carrying an interest rate on outstanding

      with such interest rate ranging from 8.25 percent per annum to 10.75
      percent annum for the period of April 7, 1994 through June 30, 1997.  The
      Company had utilized this entire line of credit during 1994.  Amounts
      borrowed pursuant to this line of credit are payable by the Company on
      demand. The Company made payments of $12,000 in 1995, reducing the line
      of credit Promissory Note to $338,000. In addition, this Promissory Note
      is to be repaid, pursuant to an Agreement between the Company and Norton
      Diamond Film Division ("Norton") of Saint-Gobain/Norton Industrial
      Ceramics Corporation, an affiliate of the Company, dated August 9, 1994,
      in which Norton agreed to waive their standard 20% discount from the
      prevailing list price for its purchases from the Company provided this
      20% discount is used to first repay accrued interest and then principal
      owing on the outstanding balance to Venture until the balance is repaid
      in full.
        
      On August 18, 1994, the Company issued a Convertible Debenture
      ("Debenture") to Growth, for the principal amount of $724,575 with the
      interest accruing on the outstanding balance at a rate of 2 percent above
      the prime rate of a major bank with such rate ranging from 9.75 percent
      per annum to 11.00 percent per annum for the period from August 12, 1994
      through June 30,1997.  The Debenture amount of $724,575 represents
      amounts owed by the Company to Venture in relation to a promissory
      note($125,000), plus related accrued interest ($23,603), deferred
      compensation ($261,139), accrued royalties ($212,591), and other
      miscellaneous liabilities ($102,242).  The Debenture has an exercise
      price of $.5630 per share of common stock.

      On October 27, 1995, by resolution of the Board of Directors, the
      exercise price of the Debenture issued to Growth on August 18, 1994 was

      the bid-ask price of the Company's common stock on that date in
      consideration for financing and contributions of capital provided to the
      Company during 1995.  On the same date, $600,000 of the debt owed Growth
      under the Debenture was converted to 3,838,772 shares of the Company's
      common stock.  There remains a balance due of $124,574 under the
      Convertible Debenture.

      Company on demand.  The Company had drawn $25,000 on this line of credit
      in 1996.  The applicable interest rate is at 2 percentage points above

(5)   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
      -----------------------------

      GOING CONCERN
      -------------

      The Company has incurred operating losses and generated cash flow
      deficits from operating activities since inception, therefore, the
      Company's ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon its
      ability to raise additional funds to support its activities.

      The Company is relying on sales of its microwave processing systems to
      provide additional working capital.  The Company is also continuously
      evaluating acquisitions of technologies and/or entities owning such
      technologies which are compatible to the Company's business strategies
      with the intention of increasing the Company's revenue generating
      capabilities.  In addition, the Company is continuing to seek capital
      from various sources of funding such as additional term loans, lines of
      credit, corporate partners and sales of equity securities.  However,
      there is no assurance that the required amount of additional funds can be
      raised.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
        ---------------------------------------------------------

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
      
THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTHS 
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
ENDED JUNE 30, 1996  
- -------------------


Operating loss declined during the 1997 quarter as a result of significant
decline in operating expenses and, to a lesser extent, an increase in operating
revenue.

Operating revenue increased slightly during the 1997 quarter as a result of
higher sponsored contract research and development activities.

Operating expenses decreased primarily as a result of significantly lower cost
of sales, and selling, general and administrative expenses more than 
offsetting higher research and development expenses.   Lower cost of sales and
royalty expenses reflect lower microwave processing system sales. The increase 
in research  and development expense reflects increased sponsored and
non-sponsored research and development activities. The decline in selling,
general and administrative expenses resulted primarily from temporarily lower
salary and benefit costs.  
        
Net loss declined significantly as a result of the decline in operating loss
mentioned above.  The other expenses, net recognized for the quarter ended June
30, 1997 increased significantly compared to June 30, 1996 due to higher
interest expense.


FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------

JUNE 30, 1997 COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 1996
- -------------------------------------------


The Company continued to have difficulty meeting its cash requirements during
the six months of 1997.  For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the
Company continued to defer payment of all or a portion of compensation of
certain management personnel to conserve cash for operating purposes.  Deferred
compensation costs of the Company amounted to $212,810 as of June 30, 1997. 
The Company was also in arrears pertaining  to other obligations in the amount
of $235,640 as of June 30,1997.
        
Obligations which the Company met during the six months of 1997 were
satisfied through sales of the Company's microwave processing systems and
contracted research and development

activities, customer deposits, lines of credit and short-term borrowings.
        

As indicated in Note 4 to the Financial Statements, the Company has incurred
operating losses and generated cash flow deficits from operating activities
since its inception, therefore, the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern is contingent upon its ability to raise additional funds to support its
activities.  At June 30, 1997, the Company had a negative working capital
position of $3,368,500 compared to a negative working capital position of
$3,004,700 at December 31, 1996.

The Company is attempting to generate working capital through the sale of its
microwave processing systems and through its contract research and development
activities.  As of June 30, 1997, the Company had a backlog of open sales
orders, net, of customer deposits, amounting to $198,000. Subject to various
qualifications and assuming no change in delivery dates or in the shipment of
orders in the normal course of business, management expects, although there can
be no assurance, to ship all of the above mentioned backlog and collect the
applicable cash proceeds during 1997.

The Company must increase its backlog of open sales orders substantially and
obtain additional product development assistance to adequately support its
activities.  The Company is continuously evaluating acquisitions of
technologies and/or entities owning such technologies which are compatible to
the Company's business strategies with the intention of increasing the
Company's revenue generating capabilities.  In addition, the Company is
continuing to seek funding from various other sources such as additional term
loans, lines of credit, corporate partners and equity financing.  However,
there is no assurance that the required amount of additional funds can be
raised.

ITEM 5.      OTHER INFORMATION
