Publication number: 20120244060Abstract: Methods are described that have the capability of producing submicron/nanoscale particles, in some embodiments dispersible, at high production rates. In some embodiments, the methods result in the production of particles with an average diameter less than about 75 nanometers that are produced at a rate of at least about 35 grams per hour. In other embodiments, the particles are highly uniform. These methods can be used to form particle collections and/or powder coatings. Powder coatings and corresponding methods are described based on the deposition of highly uniform submicron/nanoscale particles.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 13, 2010Publication date: September 27, 2012Inventors: Xiangxin Bi, Nobuyuki Kambe, Craig R. Horne, James T. Gardner, Ronald J. Mosso, Shivkumar Chiruvolu, Sujeet Kumar, William E. McGovern, Pierre J. DeMascarel, Robert B. Lynch

Patent number: 7776406Abstract: Nanoscale particles, particle coatings/particle arrays and corresponding consolidated materials are described based on an ability to vary the composition involving a wide range of metal and/or metalloid elements and corresponding compositions. In particular, metalloid oxides and metal-metalloid compositions are described in the form of improved nanoscale particles and coatings formed from the nanoscale particles. Compositions comprising rare earth metals and dopants/additives with rare earth metals are described. Complex compositions with a range of host compositions and dopants/additives can be formed using the approaches described herein. The particle coating can take the form of particle arrays that range from collections of disbursable primary particles to fused networks of primary particles forming channels that reflect the nanoscale of the primary particles. Suitable materials for optical applications are described along with some optical devices of interest.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2007Date of Patent: August 17, 2010Assignee: NeoPhotonics CorporationInventors: Craig R. Horne, Pierre J. DeMascarel, Christian C. Honeker, Benjamin Chaloner-Gill, Herman A. Lopez, Xiangxin Bi, Ronald J. Mosso, William E. McGovern, James T. Gardner, Sujeet Kumar, James A.
