  • Patent number: 9307626
    Abstract: The present invention is directed towards devices, systems and methods which produce electromagnetic waveforms including radio-frequency waves, microwaves and electromagnetic waves having no field current or electric field (magnetic waves) and subatomic and/or charge-less particles. In one embodiment, the system and method produces a “charge-less” propagating “magnetic” wave and/or charge-less particles and/or subatomic particles which have demonstrated high utility in the structural modification of both solids and liquids for materials processing. The energy generator according to one embodiment comprises a magnetron emitter hermetically sealed in a housing and supplied with a continuous dirty or erratic voltage signal to cause the magnetron emitter to operate erratically and unstably as a broad band signal generator whereby electromagnetic waves are produced in the hermetically sealed housing which facilitates and produces a plasma above the cathode of the magnetron emitter.

  • Patent number: 9069049
    Abstract: Directed-energy systems and methods are described for disrupting electronic circuits, especially those containing semiconductors. A directed-energy system can include a charged particle generator configured to generate plural energized particles and a charge transformer configured to receive the plural energized particles that include charged particles and to output energized particles that include particles having substantially zero charge. The charged particle generator can be configured to direct the plural energized particles through the charge transformer in a predefined direction. A method for disrupting electronic circuits can include generating plural energized particles, directing the plural energized particles to an incident surface of a charge transformer and transforming the plural energized particles within the charge transformer. The transformed particles can be at substantially zero charge.

  • Patent number: 8400281
    Abstract: A wireless identification system can include a directed-energy device configured as a reader. The reader can include a charged particle generator configured to generate energized particles and a charge transformer configured to receive the energized particles that include charged particles from the charged particle generator and to output a wavefront including energized particles that include particles having substantially zero charge. The system can also include an identification tag configured to be activated when impinged by the wavefront from the reader so as to transmit a signal configured to be used by the reader. A method of using a directed-energy device as a tag reader in a wireless identification system can include generating a wavefront that includes particles at substantially zero charge, impinging an identification tag with the wavefront so as to activate the identification tag so as to send a signal and detecting a signal transmitted by the identification tag.
