Abstract: Various emitters and emitter systems are disclosed. For instance, in various embodiments, an emitter can comprise a substrate, an insulator bonded to the substrate, a graphene layer bonded to the insulator, and a first electrical contact and a second electrical contact. The first electrical contact can be bonded over a first portion of the graphene layer, and the second electrical contact can be bonded over a second portion of the graphene layer. The graphene layer electrically couples the first electrical contact and the second electrical contact and is configured to receive the application of a pulsed input voltage between the first electrical contact and the second electrical contact and to radiate radio frequency (RF) energy. An emitter system can comprise a plurality of emitters, each disposed on a single integrated circuit.

Abstract: A nanoscale solid state terahertz emitter employs a layered half-cylinder associated with a substrate. The half-cylinder is configured with a channel having a pre-determined channel length. The emitter is defined in a three-dimensional frame of reference. The layered half-cylinder includes a conductor layer bonded to the substrate. An insulator layer is bonded to the conductor layer. An arcuate-shaped graphene layer is bonded to the insulator layer along a pre-determined contact length.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to automated three phase power monitoring systems. Embodiments of the invention include a zero crossing activated switch having an overload condition signal input that is electrically connected to a signal output terminal. The zero crossing activated switch prohibits conduction of the overload condition signal to a neutral ground RMS reactive breaker control mechanism until the zero crossing activated switch determines that at least one of three alternating currents crosses zero relative to a neutral signal.

Abstract: A tool for loosening and/or unscrewing a screw in an object. The tool includes a frame dimensioned and configured to receive (or be mounted on) an object having at least one screw removably embedded therein.

Abstract: A guided missile/launcher test set reprogramming interface assembly J2 connector clamp includes a frame having an upper side, a lower side, and at least one aperture with a threaded portion that extends through the frame and is adapted to threadingly associate with threads on a connector. Rotational torque is transferred away from the frame and connector when a securing mechanism is actuated.
