  • Method of making of compound x-ray lenses and variable focus x-ray lens assembly
    Patent number: 6718009
    Abstract: A method for producing microstructures for use for x-ray lenses using extrusion techniques and a variable focus x-ray lens assembly are provided. An elongated strip of multiple x-ray lenses and cavities of arbitrary cross-section are produced by an extrusion step. A predefined lens profile of the multiple x-ray lenses has, for example, a parabolic profile for x-ray focusing. The elongated strip of multiple cylindrical compound x-ray lenses can be cut into multiple uniform small lengths, for example, 50 mm lengths, and positioned within a support member. Cutting the assembled support member and x-ray lenses at a selected angle provides a variable focus x-ray lens assembly.

  • Plasma valve
    Patent number: 6528948
    Abstract: A plasma valve includes a confinement channel and primary anode and cathode disposed therein. An ignition cathode is disposed adjacent the primary cathode. Power supplies are joined to the cathodes and anode for rapidly igniting and maintaining a plasma in the channel for preventing leakage of atmospheric pressure through the channel.
