Christopher David TIBBETTS has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11275187
    Abstract: A detector array for a radiation system includes a radiation detection sub-assembly, a routing sub-assembly, and an electronics sub-assembly. The routing sub-assembly is disposed between the radiation detection sub-assembly and the electronics sub-assembly and includes one or more layers of shielding material. For example, the routing sub-assembly may include a printed circuit board having embedded therein a shielding material configured to shield the electronics sub-assembly from at least some radiation. In some embodiments, the shielding material defines at least one opening through which a conductive element(s) passes to deliver signals between the radiation detection sub-assembly and the electronics sub-assembly.

  • Patent number: 10761219
    Abstract: A dual-energy detector array for a radiation system is provided. The dual-energy detector array includes a circuit board assembly having a first side and a second side. A first conversion package is coupled to the first side of the circuit board assembly and has a first effective photon energy. A second conversion package is coupled to the second side of the circuit board assembly and has a second effective photon energy different than the first effective photon energy. A radiation filtering material is disposed within the circuit board assembly between the first conversion package and the second conversion package. The radiation filtering material attenuates at least some of the radiation photons impinging thereon.
