Lasers are an Electro-Magnetic emission of which the output is a synchronized at a specific and regular frequency.
If you have two lasers at about 700nm and 1000nm, and they 'start' at a synchronized point, then 7mm (7000nm) of emission later they'd have a repeat of the cycle begin again.
During that cycle the interference pattern would probably have an interesting shape, but I very much doubt it'd be useful for semiconductor production. Maybe a math or physics graduate could elaborate on if there's a name for this kind of pattern and if there are any uses I'm not aware of.

- jleahy 6y agoThat’s a linear mixing, non-linear allows for the absorption of two photons followed by the emission of one with twice the energy. That allows for a laser pumped frequency doubler. Actually most consumer oriented lasers (for example green lasers) work like this, but I don’t know if it works for frequencies as high as soft x-rays. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second-harmonic_generation https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second-harmonic_generation
