  • Patent number: 7151330
    Abstract: A vector inversion generator utilizes closed-path ferrites to modify the characteristics of the generator. The closed-path ferrites increase an inductance within a portion of the generator and additionally provide a protective shield for associated electronic circuits. By increasing the inductance, the closed-path ferrites increase the voltage efficiency and the energy efficiency of the generator.

  • Patent number: 6025020
    Abstract: Amorphous, highly dispersed ruthenium oxide having a high energy storage capacity may be prepared using high surface area carbon as carbon powder or as carbon fibers as a template for the ruthenium oxide. The process avoids the disadvantages of a sol-gel process, and utilizes deposition of a ruthenium source within the pores of carbon fibers dispersed in a cellulose matrix. The ruthenium source subsequently is converted to amorphous ruthenium oxide hydrate by heating in a steam atmosphere containing at least 30 weight percent water at temperatures up to about 500.degree. C.

  • Patent number: 5780370
    Abstract: Robust, large area selective infrared line emitters can be made using composites of rare earth metal oxide fibers dispersed and interlocked in a network of connected structure-forming fibers, especially alumina fibers, where the fibers are adhesively connected by a ceramic bonding agent. Articles where the composite is formed of rare earth metal oxide fibers in a network of alumina fibers and where the two types of fibers are connected by alumina a the ceramic bonding agent show narrow bandwidth emissions with good thermal conversion efficiencies and with improved tensile strength and lower brittleness than in the absence of the ceramic bonding agent.
