Mitigating The Effects Of Miniaturizing Integrating Spheres For Fiber Optic Measurement

View page
US Patent:
6846085, Jan 25, 2005
Filed:
Jan 21, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/053751
Inventors:
Michael Paul Minneman - Broomfield CO, US
Douglas Fredrick Zahn - Brier WA, US
Elwood James Egerton - Longmont CO, US
Assignee:
DBM Optics, Incorporated - Lafayette CO
International Classification:
G02B 508
US Classification:
359838, 359846, 359847
Abstract:
An miniature integrating sphere has a spherical volume with walls of a material for reflecting light, a light inlet and a light outlet. The light inlet is offset from a diameter axis of the spherical volume and the light inlet and light outlet are offset at non-perpendicular and non-parallel relation to each other. The light inlet is molded or milled to a shape conforming to the shape of the cone of light provided by a fiber optic device as an input to the integrating sphere. A number of miniature integrating spheres may be used respectively in plural channels of an optical measurement instrument.

Bifurcated Range Stages To Increase Speed Or Dynamic Range Of Measuring Instruments And Associated Methods

US Patent:
7062168, Jun 13, 2006
Filed:
Mar 19, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/102025
Inventors:
Michael Paul Atwell - Broadview Heights OH, US
Michael Paul Minneman - Broomfield CO, US
Elwood James Egerton - Longmont CO, US
Assignee:
DBM Optics, Incorporated - Lafayette CO
International Classification:
H04B 10/08
US Classification:
398 38, 398 33, 398202, 398208, 398214, 356226, 356229, 250214 A, 324115, 330129, 341139
Abstract:
Multiple stage ranging circuitry for a measuring circuit includes a first ranging circuit that selectively amplifies an input signal by respective amounts according to the magnitude of the input signal thereto, and a second ranging circuit coupled to the output of the first ranging circuit selectively amplifies the output signal from the first ranging circuit by a respective amount according to the magnitude of that output signal to provide a measured output. The multiple stage ranging circuitry increases dynamic range and provides for high speed measurements over that dynamic range. A method of ranging for high speed signal measurements over a wide dynamic range includes directing an input signal to a first ranging stage that responds at one speed to set ranging over a relatively wide variation in input signal magnitudes, and directing the output signal from the first ranging stage to a second ranging stage responsive at a second speed faster than the one speed to set ranging over a relatively narrower range of signal magnitudes to provide for signal measurement.

Infrared Radiation Sensing Device Using A Carbon Nanotube And Polymer Composition And Method Of Making The Same

View page
US Patent:
8436305, May 7, 2013
Filed:
Mar 16, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/423118
Inventors:
Ashok K. Sood - Brookline MA, US
Elwood J. Egerton - Hot Springs SD, US
Assignee:
Magnolia Optical Technologies, Inc. - Woburn MA
International Classification:
G01J 5/10
US Classification:
2503381
Abstract:
Infrared radiation detecting and sensing systems and devices using carbon nanotubes and polymers and methods to making the same. In illustrative embodiments of the invention, it includes a substrate, a suspended carbon nanotube fabric and polymer, first and second conducting interconnects each in electrical communication with the nanotube polymer fabric. Nanotube/polymer fabrics can be modified to increase the temperature coefficient of resistance to increase sensitivity to IR radiation.

Infrared Radiation Detectors Using Bundled Carbon Nanotubes And Methods Of Constructing The Same

View page
US Patent:
8455828, Jun 4, 2013
Filed:
May 9, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/103323
Inventors:
Elwood J. Egerton - Longmont CO, US
Ashok K. Sood - Brookline MA, US
Assignee:
Magnolia Optical Technologies, Inc. - Woburn MA
International Classification:
G01J 5/02
US Classification:
25033901, 250340
Abstract:
Infrared (IR) radiation detecting and sensing systems using aligned or bundled carbon nanotubes and methods to making the same. In certain embodiments of the invention, it includes a substrate, aligned or bundled carbon nanotubes, first and second conducting interconnects each in electrical communication with the nanotubes. Bundled nanotubes can be tuned to increase the temperature coefficient of resistance to increase sensitivity to IR radiation. In addition bundled nanotubes are independent of Nyquist frequency limitations found in other IR sensors because of the lack of 1/f or flicker noise sources. These detectors can be fabricated on CMOS foundry wafers resulting in large format focal planes greater than 1000×1000 and pixel sizes only limited by photolithographic technologies. The increase in temperature coefficient of resistance claimed within results in IR detectors capable of NEDT of less than 10 mK at low cost.

Non-Linear Ranging To Control Linear Ranging Measurement Device

View page
US Patent:
20020097392, Jul 25, 2002
Filed:
Jan 21, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/054012
Inventors:
Michael Minneman - Broomfield CO, US
Michael Atwell - Broadview Heights OH, US
Elwood Egerton - Longmont CO, US
International Classification:
G01J001/42
US Classification:
356/224000
Abstract:
A range selection circuit (), including a logarithmic amplifier () and output circuitry () associated therewith, is configured to directly drive linear ranging circuitry for measurement circuitry () in an optical power meter () to measure signals that vary over a wide range of, for example, from about -7dB to about -45dB. This allows the optical power meter to change ranges as fast as one (1) times the hardware settling time. The range selection circuitry is in parallel with the measurement circuitry, which allows ranging to happen in real time.

Silicon Nanocomposite Anode For Lithium Ion Battery

View page
US Patent:
20160013477, Jan 14, 2016
Filed:
May 20, 2015
Appl. No.:
14/545558
Inventors:
Elwood James Egerton - Hot Springs SD, US
Joan Francis Howard - Hot Springs SD, US
James Darrell Rowatt - Fort Collins CO, US
Richard Michael Altobellis - Mead CO, US
Assignee:
Paideia LLC - Hot Springs SD
International Classification:
H01M 4/36
H01M 4/38
H01M 4/04
H01M 4/134
Abstract:
A higher capacity nanoporous silicon thin film structure with alternating layers of silicon nanoparticles and carbon nanotube nonaligned will result in an anode for lithium ion batteries. This nanocomposite structure will increase the specific capacity to 3500 mAh/g-1 versus 350 mAh/g-1 for state of the art lithium batteries. Charge/discharge cycles of 5000 with a maximum of 15% loss are also achievable. This is due to the silicon nanocomposites capability to accommodate the mechanical expansion of the lithiated silicon species. Reliability defects such as copper cracking and delamination will be minimized using a barrier/adhesion metal layer. This will also reduce copper dendrite formation. Particle cracking and lithium plating will also be reduced by using the silicon based nanocomposite. The silicon nanocomposite can be fabricated using off the shelf deposition techniques minimizing transition to high rate production and recurring manufacturing product costs.
