Patents by Inventor Petr Brazda

Petr Brazda 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).

  • Methods for determining crystal structure and apparatus for carrying out the methods
    Patent number: 12072305
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for determining the crystal structure of a crystal (4) capable of electron diffraction. The method includes the steps of obtaining a three-dimensional electron diffraction pattern and processing data from the electron diffraction pattern. The essence of the invention is that the method of determination consists in creating virtual diffraction frames containing a list of integrated scattered electron intensities. Subsequently, the dynamical diffraction theory is used in the data processing step. In another embodiment, the invention provides an apparatus capable of performing this method.
