  • Downhole laser system with an improved laser output production and data collection
    Patent number: 11885746
    Abstract: One or more embodiments relates to a method of growing ultrasmooth and high quantum efficiency CsTe photocathodes. The method includes exposing a substrate of Cs using an alkali source such as an effusion cell; and controlling co-evaporating growth and co-deposition forming a CsTe growth. The method further includes monitoring a stoichiometry of the CsTe growth.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 26, 2022
    Date of Patent: January 30, 2024
    Assignee: United States Department of Energy
    Inventors: Dustin McIntyre, Daniel Hartzler

  • Laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) probe for simplified light collection and laser operation
    Patent number: 10145737
    Abstract: A Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) probe using a dove prism for the laser media. The use of a dove prism allows for the removal of two mirrors over prior art schemes. The use of the dove prism allows for the light from the spark to be analyzed from the return path.
