In the Reply Brief, Appellant responds that “[it] is well settled that the amount of disclosure required to enable a broad claim is dependent on the predictability of the art.” Reply Br. 2. Appellant cites Spectra-Physics, Inc. v. Coherent, Inc., which states:
If an invention pertains to an art where the results are predictable, . . . a broad claim can be enabled by disclosure of a single embodiment . . . and is not invalid for lack of enablement simply because it read on another embodiment of the invention which is inadequately disclosed. Id. (citing 827 F.2d 1524, 1533 (Fed. Cir. 1987) (internal citations omitted)).
Appellant argues that because the optical technology of the claims is predictable and because there are two embodiments supporting the claim limitation, the claim is enabled. See id. at 2–4.
We agree with Appellant that the general rule of Spectra-Physics applies here.
