  • Applying optical energy to nanoparticles to produce a specified nanostructure
    Patent number: 8422197
    Abstract: The instant article of manufacture is made by applying optical energy to one or more layers of nanoparticulate materials under predetermined conditions to produce a nanostructure. The nanostructure has layers of optically fused nanoparticles including a predetermined pore density, a predetermined pore size, or both. The predetermined conditions for applying the optical energy may include a predetermined voltage, a predetermined duration, a predetermined power density, or combinations thereof.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 14, 2010
    Date of Patent: April 16, 2013
    Assignee: Applied Nanotech Holdings, Inc.
    Inventors: Zvi Yaniv, Nan Jiang, James P. Novak, Richard L. Fink

  • Large area electron source
    Patent number: 7078716
    Abstract: By using a large area cathode, an electron source can be made that can irradiate a large area more uniformly and more efficiently than currently available devices. The electron emitter can be a carbon film cold cathode, a microtip or some other emitter. It can be patterned. The cathode can be assembled with electrodes for scanning the electron source.
