Patents by Inventor Markos Karageorgis

Markos Karageorgis 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).

  • Patent number: 8832164
    Abstract: A computer system includes a deterministic computer that provides a non-recursive functional to a quantum system encoder. The quantum system encoder encodes the non-recursive functional into a first quantum system. The first quantum state is transformed to a second quantum state by an operator that includes a Topological Order Processing Element (TOPE). A quantum allegory generator provides an oracle to the operator.

  • Patent number: 8748802
    Abstract: Various aspects of the subject technology provide systems and methods for transmitting a radio frequency (RF) signal from a desired location on the surface of a photoconversion material by simply directing a laser beam or other energy beam to the desired location on the photoconversion material. In one aspect, the laser beam causes electrons in the photoconversion material to accelerate and emit the RF signal by forming a dead region on the photoconversion material that the electrons must flow around. In one aspect, the dead region has an asymmetrical shape to prevent a cancellation effect and produce a net positive RF signal. Various aspects of the subject technology also provide systems and methods for drawing a circuit element on the photoconversion material by tracing one or more dead regions on the photoconversion material with a laser beam or other energy beam to construct the circuit element.

  • Patent number: 7767976
    Abstract: An entangled quantum generator generates a signal including a plurality of entangled quanta. The wavelength of the signal is the sum of the wavelengths of the entangled quanta. A signal processor determines a characteristic of the target based on information derived from at least some of the entangled quanta in the return signal. The frequency of the signal is selected to propagate the signal through a medium and the frequencies of the entangled quanta are selected to provide sufficient data in the return signal to resolve the characteristic of the target.

  • Patent number: 7446451
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a thermo-photovoltaic (TPV) material that is capable of generating electrical power from low temperature heat radiation. An electric field generator is coupled to apply an electric field to the TPV material. The strength of the electric field is sufficient to shift the sensitivity of the TPV material to sense lower frequency radiation than the TPV material can sense when the electric field is not applied and to broaden the band of frequencies over which the TPV is effective.

  • Patent number: 7375802
    Abstract: An entangled quantum particle generator generates a signal including a plurality of entangled particles. The wavelength of the signal is the sum of the wavelengths of the entangled particles. A signal processor determines a characteristic of the target based on information derived from at least some of the entangled particles in the return signal. The frequency of the signal is selected to propagate the signal through a medium and the frequencies of the entangled particles are selected to provide sufficient data in the return signal to resolve the characteristic of the target.
