  • Solar powered iodine laser
    Patent number: 4264876
    Abstract: A stabilized satellite device located outside of the earth's atmosphere collects solar energy, converting it by photochemical or other laser interactions into a beam of infrared energy directed toward a power utilization station, such as at the earth's surface, the wave length of the infrared energy lying within a non-attenuating pass-band in the earth's atmosphere. Sections of the laser are cooled by a directive radiator system aligned toward outer space.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 17, 1977
    Date of Patent: April 28, 1981
    Assignee: Sperry Corporation
    Inventors: Check K. Jung, Harold E. Whalen
  • Gasdynamic solar powered laser
    Patent number: 4234856
    Abstract: A stabilized-satellite power system located outside of the earth's atmosphere collects solar energy, converting it by dynamic gas laser interaction into a beam of infrared energy directed toward a power utilization station, such as at the earth's surface, the wave length of the infrared energy lying within a non-attenuating pass-band in the earth's atmosphere. A section of the laser is cooled by a directive radiator system aligned toward outer space.
