  • Patent number: 11755722
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to managing sandboxed application extensions. A first request that include includes information that identifies an extension may be provided to an extension server. Information included in a first response may be employed to instantiate an extension shell that corresponds to the extension and embed it in the hosting application such that the extension shell is associated with a first security policy included in the first response. A second request may be provided to the extension server based on information included in the extension shell such that the second request includes an identifier associated with an extension body that corresponds to the extension shell. The first security policy or the second security policy may be employed to enable one or more of the extension shell or the extension body to just access the hosting application or just access the extension server.

  • Patent number: 10094978
    Abstract: Systems and method are provided for producing portable, high power, broadband terahertz emitters based on arrayed terahertz photoconductive antennas. After such an arrayed structure is made, the phase of terahertz signals that are produced by each photoconductive antenna can be adjusted, and the terahertz signals can be added such that the signals are added constructively. Terahertz emitters based on terahertz photoconductive antenna arrays are advantageously small in size and scalable, allowing for terahertz power to be increased by adding more photoconductive antenna arrays.

  • Patent number: 9435751
    Abstract: A system and method for detecting and identifying nuclear materials by detecting and measuring positive and negative ions in multiple ion chambers, wherein each ion chamber comprises a different gas, including oxygen, argon, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and humid air, and one or more ion counters. The ion data can be transmitted to an isotope identification module. The ion data can include a distinctive pattern data of positive-ion production rates and negative-ion production rates generated from the measured positive and negative ions. The isotope identification module can compare the pattern data of positive-ion production rates and negative-ion production rates to an isotope data library, and identify a detected nuclear isotope with the isotope identification module. A display can show the identified detected nuclear isotope; a probability of the presence of the detected nuclear isotope; and a radioactivity of the detected nuclear isotope.

  • Publication number: 20150325324
    Abstract: A photoconductive antenna is described that includes a substrate that includes a pair of trenches. Furthermore, a pair of non-parallel electrodes, which can be designed with a chaotic electrode geometry, can each be deposited in one of the trenches, and can be configured to produce chaotic trajectories of incoherent electric currents. Finally, an insulation layer, which can be either a physical electrical insulation layer or an air gap, can be included between each of the pair of non-parallel electrodes and the trench walls. Overall, the thickness of the substrate, the thickness of the trenches, and the thickness of the non-parallel electrodes can each be optimized to produce a coherent terahertz beam.
