20100061503 | Pseudo-capacitor structure for direct nuclear energy conversion - Direct nuclear energy conversion into electricity device based on nano-hetero-structures with applications in nuclear reactors and radioisotope batteries. The nano structure may be made by a repeated customized sequence of nano-layers generically called “CIci” The structure may also be made by a series of structures evolved from CIci as nanoplasmon, nanowire, nano-tube. The Structure relies on knock on electron avalanche produced by stopping radiation that is generated by the high electron density conductor material “C” that tunnels through insulator “I” and accumulates in the low density conductor “c”. The “C” material is producing no electrons to cross the associate insulator “i” therefore remains negatively charged by the electron shower, and discharges through a resistor connected to th “C” later. The nanoplasmon structure exhibits thermal direct conversion properties by radiation switched mechanism that is generated by the plasmon-phonon resonance. The device has ultra-capacitive properties when made with carbon nanotubes. The device is useful for a direct conversion nano-battery or for nuclear reactor direct conversion structure. It may also be used as a radiation energy harvesting device when made with actinides for neutro-capture and amplification. | 03-11-2010 |

A distributed electronic processing system based on anticipated parameters and controls the entire system optimal regime. The method of obtaining the optimal response from the catalysts is that of maintaining the thermodynamic operation parameters at right values by a set of heat exchangers, fans, valves and actuators in closed loops and processor control having the safety embedded. The applications are covering chemical synthesis, heating, air and gas cleaning, fuels and alcohol reforming. | 12-16-2010 |
20110001065 | Nano-structured nuclear radiation shielding - The nuclear shielding is bulky and difficult to handle due to the reduced stopping power between the neutral radiations (X, gamma, n) and materials. It is proven that these radiations reflect at grazing angles on special substrates called super-mirrors that contain nano-layers of various materials. The usage of nano-structures in ordered manner or nano-tubes may create the super-mirror like wave-guide for this neutral radiation driving it and turning at angles greater than 90 degrees in few microns only. The usage of ferro or piezo electric nano-structures generates a shield that has the wave-guides path dependent on a control voltage. The resultant device is a shield for nuclear reactor criticality control, minimizing the nuclear reactor shielding and making an electric control of the power level by adjusting the shielding transmission. Other devices as X, n imaging device, or radiation funneling to increase the efficiency of using thin absorbents are some of the potential applications. | 01-06-2011 |
