Title: Biography of Bharati S Kulkarni
Introduction: Bharati S Kulkarni is an accomplished inventor based in Cortlandt Manor, NY (US). She has made significant contributions to the field of radiation sensing and nanotechnology, holding a total of three patents. Her innovative work has advanced the development of high-resolution radiation sensors and activated metal oxide nanocrystals.
Latest Patents: One of her latest patents is a high-resolution, high-output microchannel-based radiation sensor. This invention features a microchannel phosphor screen that converts radiation, such as X-rays, into visible light. The screen is designed with a planar surface made from materials like glass, silicon, or metal, which contains closely spaced microchannels with diameters of approximately 40 microns or less. Each microchannel is filled with phosphors that emit light when exposed to radiation. The design optimizes the relationship between the microchannels and phosphors to enhance light output compared to traditional scintillation screens. Additionally, a photomultiplier can be integrated with the X-ray detector to improve output for low-level X-ray applications.
Another notable patent is the microemulsion method for producing activated metal oxide nanocrystals. This process involves creating metal oxide nanocrystals activated with rare earth elements, which serve as effective phosphors. The production utilizes a micellar microemulsion process, where aqueous solutions of the host and activator are combined with oil and surf
