Daniel Warren van der Weide 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: 12285207
    Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and devices for delivering energy to tissue for a wide variety of applications, including medical procedures (e.g., tissue ablation, resection, cautery, vascular thrombosis, treatment of cardiac arrhythmias and dysrhythmias, electrosurgery, tissue harvest, etc.). In particular, the present invention relates to systems and devices for the delivery of energy with a linear array of antenna components having optimized energy delivery characteristics. In certain embodiments, methods are provided for treating a tissue region (e.g., a tumor) through application of energy with the systems and devices of the present invention.

  • Publication number: 20250052676
    Abstract: Terahertz (THz) radiation detectors based on the rectification of a THz signal via the non-linear Hall effect in thin films of non-centrosymmetric layered topological semimetals are provided. The THz detectors, which enable sensitive, broadband, and fast room-temperature terahertz radiation detection, can be fabricated with electrostatic gates to tune the terahertz rectification.

  • Patent number: 11588456
    Abstract: Traveling-wave tube amplifiers and methods for making slow-wave structures for the amplifiers are provided. The SWSs include helical conductors that are self-assembled via the release of stressed electrically conductive strips from a sacrificial material. The helical conductors can be electroplated post-self-assembly to fortify the helix, reduce losses, and tailor the dimensions and operating parameters of the helix.
