Key Characteristics & Benefits

This portfolio discloses techniques for energy-efficient methods of deflecting electron beams.

• The electron beam is injected offset between conductive plates that are shaped in a non-linear manner.
• Voltages are applied to the shaped plates to deflect the beam with high energy efficiency and low aberrations.
• The disclosed technique provides the low energy and high performance solution to reduce deflection aberrations in electrostatic deflection systems, allowing greater resolution and control of the beam.
• This portfolio further discloses techniques for producing an electron beam device that can be used as a directed energy ballistic missile defense in space.

Market Potential

The portfolio is important to companies manufacturing any devices that use charged particle beams in military and commercial industries.

• Deflecting charged particle beams is very common in technological devices.
• There are over 33,000 hits in US Patents and US Patent Applications for "electron or ion" and "beam" and "deflection".
• The technique described here may be applicable to at least some of the many devices that deflect charged particle beams.
• This includes devices used in ballistic missile defense and with further modifications as a land mine detection device.

Companies who have cited this patent portfolio include Kabushiki Kaisha Toshiba and Rapiscan Systems.
