  • Heterostructure self-assembled quantum dot
    Patent number: 7618905
    Abstract: A method and device for a heterostructure self-assembled quantum dot based on inherent strain present in underlying self-assembled quantum dots for the purpose of modification and control of the properties of the self assembled quantum dots structures formed on semiconductor surfaces.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 23, 2007
    Date of Patent: November 17, 2009
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air Force
    Inventors: Kurt G. Eyink, David H. Tomich, Lawrence Grazulis
  • Solid state magnetic field sensor method
    Patent number: 6117697
    Abstract: A method for making a magnetoresistive sensing device including depositing an ultrathin active film responsive to changes in magnetic field energy onto a compliant layer of periodic table group III-V semiconductor material on a semiconductor substrate wafer, the compliant layer being capable of retaining strain energy resulting from the layering semiconductor materials with different lattice constants. This method produces a battery operable ultrathin device highly sensitive to changes in magnetic field flux.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 27, 1998
    Date of Patent: September 12, 2000
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air Force
    Inventors: Matthew L. Seaford, Kurt G. Eyink, David H. Tomich, William V. Lampert
  • Molecular beam epitaxy effusion cell
    Patent number: 5540780
    Abstract: A temperature controlled source cell for use in the practice of thin film depositions by molecular beam epitaxy is described which includes an optical sensor for monitoring source temperature, the sensor including a light pipe having one end near the source and the other end coupled to a fiber optic probe which carries light from the light pipe to a remote optical detector.
