Doug Jackson 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).

  • Hub and detectable spool
    Patent number: 7018118
    Abstract: An improved detectable spool for use with a ribbon includes an improved hub which includes a core and an indication member. The indication member is a generally planar metallic member that is substantially embedded in or is otherwise mounted to the core, with the indication member including a support and a plurality of tabs. In at least one embodiment the indication member is a monolithically formed single-piece member, while in another embodiment the indication member is a multi-component member.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 7, 2003
    Date of Patent: March 28, 2006
    Assignee: Sony Chemicals Corporation of America
    Inventors: Ernest L. Woosley, Doug Jackson, John A. Pomfret, Richard Crooks

  • Nanopowder synthesis using pulsed arc discharge and applied magnetic field
    Publication number: 20050061785
    Abstract: Nanopowder synthesis systems in which a pulsed magnetic field is applied to electrodes of precursor material, in close proximity to an electrical discharge arc that is formed between the electrodes, to attain increased yields of nanopowder. A magnet insert of a coating precursor material is used to coat the nanopowder and thereby reduce nanoparticle agglomeration.

  • Radial pulsed arc discharge gun for synthesizing nanopowders
    Publication number: 20050000950
    Abstract: A system and method for synthesizing nanopowder which provides for precursor material ablation from two opposing electrodes that are spaced apart within a gaseous atmosphere, where a plasma is created by a high power pulsed electrical discharge between the electrodes, such pulse being of short duration to inertially confine the plasma, thereby creating a high temperature and high density plasma having high quench and/or reaction rates with the gaseous atmosphere for improved nanopowder synthesis.
