  • Publication number: 20190348563
    Abstract: An extreme and deep ultra-violet photovoltaic device designed to efficiently convert extreme ultra-violet (EUV) and deep ultra violet (DUV) photons originating from an EUV/DUV power source to electrical power via the absorption of photons creating electrons and holes that are subsequently separated via an electric field so as to create a voltage that can drive power in an external circuit. Unlike traditional solar cells, the absorption of the extreme/deep ultra-violet light near the surface of the device requires special structures constructed from large and ultra-large bandgap semiconductors so as to maximize converted power, eliminate absorption losses and provide the needed mechanical integrity.

  • Publication number: 20190170127
    Abstract: A method and means to produce a force for propulsion comprises a source of free electrons and a means to produce pseudoelectrons; whereas, a gravitating body such as the Earth provides a repulsive fifth force on the pseudoelectrons. Pseudoelectrons are produced by absorption of high-energy photons by free electrons or by angular momentum exchange between polarized relativistic free electrons and a collision partner such as H3+. The free electrons to undergo transitions to pseudoelectron states may be first formed in the ground spin state. The pseudoelectrons experience a fifth force (F2) away from the Earth and move upward (away from the Earth).

    Abstract: A method and means to produce a propulsion force comprises a source of electrons and means to produce pseudoelectrons. A gravitating body such as the Earth provides a repulsive fifth force on the pseudoelectrons. Pseudoelectrons are produced by absorption of high-energy photons by electrons. The pseudoelectrons experience a fifth force (F2) away from the Earth and move upward away from the Earth. To use this F2 device for propulsion, the repulsive fifth force on the pseudoelectrons is transferred to a negatively charged plate. The Coulombic repulsion between the pseudoelectrons and the negatively charged plate causes the plate to lift. The craft may additionally be imparted with angular momentum along an axis defined by the gravitational force, and the craft may be tilted to move the vector away from the axis where a component of acceleration tangential to a surface of a gravitating body is achieved via conservation of angular momentum.

  • Patent number: 9563746
    Abstract: A method and system of physically solving the charge, mass, and current density functions of organic molecules using Maxwell's equations and computing and rendering the physical nature of the chemical bond using the solutions. The solutions can be used to solve the dipole moments in molecules or induced dipole moments between species that in turn can be used to solve condensed matter parameters and reaction kinetics. The results can be displayed on visual or graphical media. The display can be static or dynamic such that electron motion and specie's vibrational, rotational, and translational motion can be displayed in an embodiment. The displayed information is useful to anticipate reactivity and physical properties. The insight into the nature of the chemical bond of at least one species can permit the solution and display of those of other species to provide utility to anticipate their reactivity and physical properties.

  • Publication number: 20120120980
    Abstract: This invention comprises a laser based on hydrogen molecules designated H2(1/p) wherein the internuclear distance of each is about a reciprocal integer p times that of ordinary H2. The H2(1/p) molecules are vibration-rotationally excited and lase with a transition from a vibration-rotational level to another lower-energy-level other than one with a significant Boltzmann population at the cell neutral-gas temperature (e.g. one with both ? and J=0). The vibration-rotational excitation may be by a direct collisional excitation or a light source such as a lamp, flash lamp, or internal or external plasma light source. Alternatively, the excitation may be by an energy exchange with an excited state species such as an activator may be by collision with an energetic particle from a particle excited activator molecule. The direct excitation and the excitation of the beam such as an electron beam or collision with an energetic species accelerated by power input to the cell.

  • Patent number: 7925079
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for pattern recognition and processing. Information representative of physical characteristics or representations of physical characteristics is transformed into a Fourier series in Fourier space within an input context of the physical characteristics that is encoded in time as delays corresponding to modulation of the Fourier series at corresponding frequencies. Associations are formed between Fourier series by filtering the Fourier series and by using a spectral similarity between the filtered Fourier series to determine the association based on Poissonian probability. The associated Fourier series are added to form strings of Fourier series. Each string is ordered by filtering it with multiple selected filters to form multiple time order formatted subset Fourier series, and by establishing the order through associations with one or more initially ordered strings to form an ordered string.
