Publication number: 20230072686Abstract: A practical technique for inducing and controlling the fusion of nuclei within a solid lattice. A reactor includes a loading source to provide the light nuclei which are to be fused, a lattice which can absorb the light nuclei, a source of phonon energy, and a control mechanism to start and stop stimulation of phonon energy and/or the loading of reactants. The lattice transmits phonon energy sufficient to affect electron-nucleus collapse. By controlling the stimulation of phonon energy and controlling the loading of light nuclei into the lattice, energy released by the fusion reactions is allowed to dissipate before it builds to the point that it causes destruction of the reaction lattice.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 18, 2022Publication date: March 9, 2023Applicant: Brillouin Energy Corp.Inventor: Robert E.

Publication number: 20220208399Abstract: A treatment of a possibly powdered, sintered, or deposited lattice (e.g., nickel) for heat generating applications and a way to control low energy nuclear reactions (“LENR”) hosted in the lattice by controlling hydride formation. The method of control and treatment involves the use of the reaction lattice, enclosed by an inert cover gas such as argon that carries hydrogen as the reactive gas in a non-flammable mixture. Hydrogen ions in the lattice are transmuted to neutrons as discussed in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2007/0206715 (Godes_2007)). Hydrogen moving through the lattice interacts with the newly formed neutrons generating an exothermic reaction.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 4, 2021Publication date: June 30, 2022Applicant: Brillouin Energy Corp.Inventors: Robert E. Godes, David Correia, Ronald D. Gremban

Patent number: 8624636Abstract: Techniques for overcoming many of the speed limitations of switching a gated device while protecting the device from damage provide a dynamic driving voltage to the gate of the device being switched. This dynamic voltage provides a way to overcome the complex impedances between the drive point and the actual gate allowing faster switching speeds. This dynamic driving voltage is provided by starting with a fixed amount of charge at a higher initial potential. The fixed charge and voltage are chosen so as not to exceed the device's specified maximum gate current or the device's maximum voltage between the gate and the source (punch-through voltage).Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2007Date of Patent: January 7, 2014Assignee: Brillouin Energy Corp.Inventor: Robert E.

Publication number: 20070268045Abstract: The speed limitations of switching a gated semiconductor device are overcome by providing a dynamic driving voltage to the gate of the device being switched. This dynamic driving voltage may be provided by starting with a fixed amount of charge at a higher initial potential than the ultimate target gate voltage. The fixed charge and voltage are chosen so as not to exceed the device's specified maximum gate current or the device's maximum voltage between the gate and the source (punch-through voltage).Type: ApplicationFiled: May 22, 2006Publication date: November 22, 2007Applicant: Profusion Energy, Inc.Inventor: Robert E.
