  • Compact high voltage electric feedthrough
    Patent number: 12191649
    Abstract: Systems, components, and methods for feeding high voltage into a vacuum chamber are provided. An exemplary feedthrough includes a dielectric flange defining a first side, a second side, and an aperture extending from the first side to the second side and a conductor disposed through the aperture and forming a contact with the dielectric flange on the first side.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 10, 2023
    Date of Patent: January 7, 2025
    Assignee: Avalanche Energy Designs Inc.
    Inventors: Moein Borghei, Robert McMullen, Robin Langtry, Brian Riordan
  • ORBITAL CONFINEMENT FUSION DEVICE
    Publication number: 20240347217
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for generating an orbital confinement fusion reaction are described. An orbital confinement fusion device can include a cathodic inner electrode defining a longitudinal axis of the device. The inner electrode can include an emitter material. The orbital confinement fusion device can include an anodic outer electrode, concentric with the longitudinal axis and defining a chamber between the inner electrode and the outer electrode. The orbital confinement fusion device can also include a plurality of magnetic field generators disposed in a coaxial arrangement relative to the longitudinal axis. The plurality of magnetic field generators can be configured to form a magnetic field parallel to the longitudinal axis in the chamber.
