Abstract: Provided are a system and method for sterilizing one or more medium via plasma exposure. The sterilization may be accomplished by exposing a respective medium to a given electrical field generated by electrodes disposed to target such medium, and through, optionally, further application of a magnetic field having a portion thereof disposed orthogonally to the generated electrical field.
Abstract: A fusion device produces fusion of neutral atoms and ions in an “aneutronic fusion” manner without neutrons as products utilizes strong ion-neutral coupling at high neutral densities. Ions and neutrals rotate together in a cylindrical chamber due to frequent collisions. High magnetic forces make the attainment of high rotation energy possible; the magnetic field in a medium can be set at very high values because of the absence of magnetic charges. The repeated acceleration by strong magnetic forces in the azimuthal direction makes possible very high ion velocity. Fusion takes place mainly between neutral particles. This approach can be applied to fusion with neutrons as well. Conventional fusion schemes and neutron sources can be realized using the principles described above in the generation of neutrals of high energies and densities.
Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, devices, and systems for creating, controlling, conducting, and optimizing fusion activities of nuclei. The controlled fusion activities cover a spectrum of reactions from aneutronic, fusion reactions that produce essentially no neutrons, to neutronic, fusion reactions that produce substantial numbers of neutrons.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a system and methods for the recovery of isotopes. In at least one exemplary method of the present disclosure at least one gas comprising a plurality of isotopes is provided. An electric field is generated in a radial direction to at least partially ionize the gas. A magnetic field is generated in an axial direction perpendicular to the radial direction and at least one isotope is recovered from the gas.
Abstract: An electromagnetic energy source is based on providing an alpha or beta emitting isotope contained in a medium, such as a high-pressure gas cell, or between layers of a semiconductor material such as silicon. The energy source may provide energy in the form of electric current, light, or other irradiative energy waveform, such as, for example, RF energy. Electrodes of different work functions in the cell provide an electromotive force that causes current flow.
Abstract: A reduced size high frequency quadrupole is provided having four elongated electrodes with oscillating power supplied to produce an electromagnetic field. An ion source is provided to supply the quadrupole with a negative ion beam and a positive ion beam. The quadruople has a buncher section, an acceleration section, and a neutralizer section where the ions can be bunched, accelerated and then mixed to produce a neutral ion beam of high energy.
Abstract: A modulation system that can be used alone or in conjunction with current modulation techniques for data transmission in portable phones. The system consists of two orthogonal antennas of opposite polarization in which signals can be individually received and processed. A phase delay signal combination system allows combining the signals received on the two paths to allow selective reception of various polarizations. The rate of change between these two antennas will be different for each data signal, allowing a large increase in the number of users.
