Patent number: 11684977Abstract: Herein discussed is a method of heating a material having a surface comprising exposing the surface to an electromagnetic radiation source emitting a first wavelength spectrum; receiving a second wavelength spectrum from the surface using a detector at a sampling frequency; wherein the first wavelength spectrum and the second wavelength spectrum have no greater than 10% of overlap, wherein the overlap is the integral of intensity with respect to wavelength. In an embodiment, the first wavelength spectrum and the second wavelength spectrum have no greater than 5% of overlap or no greater than 3% of overlap or no greater than 1% of overlap or no greater than 0.5% of overlap. In an embodiment, exposing the surface to the radiation source causes the material to sinter at least partially.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2020Date of Patent: June 27, 2023Assignee: Utility Global, Inc.Inventors: Matthew Dawson, Nicholas Farandos, Jin Dawson, Chris Matson

Patent number: 8367983Abstract: Methods and apparatus for processing substrates and measuring the temperature using radiation pyrometry are disclosed. A reflective layer is provided on a window of a processing chamber. A radiation source providing radiation in a first range of wavelengths heats the substrate, the substrate being transparent to radiation in a second range of wavelengths within the first range of wavelengths for a predetermined temperature range. Radiation within the second range of wavelength is reflected by the reflective layer.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2009Date of Patent: February 5, 2013Assignee: Applied Materials, Inc.Inventors: Joseph M. Ranish, Aaron M. Hunter, Blake R. Koelmel, Bruce E. Adams

Patent number: 7956309Abstract: A burner for a glass top stove includes a heating element, and a reflector. The reflector is shaped to reflect heat and light emitted down and to the sides of the heater back up to the glass top of the burner. The reflector is shaped to form multiple images of the heater on the glass plate. This ensures uniform heating of the glass plate. It also causes a user to believe that there are more heaters than are actually mounted on the burner.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2007Date of Patent: June 7, 2011Assignee: LG Electronics Inc.Inventors: Hyoung Jun Kim, Seung Jo Baek, Byeong Wook Park, Young Jun Lee

Patent number: 7472698Abstract: An energy saving reflector assembly for cook-top heating units. The reflector assembly features a device which concentrates heat on the bottom of a cooking vessel being heated and prevents heat from escaping laterally from under the vessel being heated. The device provides significant decreases in both cooking time and energy consumption. Embodiments for electric and gas cook-tops are described.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2006Date of Patent: January 6, 2009Inventor: Kevin J. Anibas
