Binod Rizal has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • COAXIAL ELECTRODE ARRAYS AND METHODS THEREOF
    Publication number: 20170122928
    Abstract: The invention provides novel devices and methods that enable ultrahigh spatial and temporal resolution interfaces that allow access and intervention to local (intra- and proximate extra-neuronal) neuroelectronic and neurotransmitter molecular signatures associated with aberrant cell function and cell death leading to neurodegenerative diseases. Scalable devices based on a unique nanoscale coaxial electrode array of the invention offer neural recording and control at unprecedented levels of precisions.
    Type: Application
    Filed: December 15, 2016
    Publication date: May 4, 2017
    Inventors: Michael J. Naughton, Thomas C. Chiles, Michael J. Burns, John P. Christianson, Jeffrey R. Naughton, Binod Rizal
  • Nanoscale sensors with nanoporous material
    Patent number: 9360509
    Abstract: A nanocoaxial sensor includes an outer conductor, an inner conductor, a nanoporous dielectric material disposed between the outer and inner conductors, a nanocavity sized to allow target species to enter the nanocavity between the outer and inner conductors.
    Type: Grant
