Title: Innovations of Christopher Ryan Riley
Introduction
Christopher Ryan Riley is an accomplished inventor based in Albuquerque, NM. He holds a total of 3 patents that reflect his expertise in materials science and engineering. His work focuses on novel high entropy oxides and their applications in various industries.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is titled "Multi-cationic aluminate spinels." This invention is directed to both stoichiometric and sub-stoichiometric high entropy aluminate spinels as a novel high entropy oxide (HEO) crystal phase. Previously reported HEOs are overwhelmingly stoichiometric structures containing a single cationic site and are stabilized solely by intermixing increasing numbers of cations. According to an aspect of the invention, sub-stoichiometric spinels, containing various mixtures of divalent metal cations and cationic vacancies in nominally equimolar concentration, provide entropic stabilization similarly to cations in stoichiometric spinels. The chromatic, structural, and chemical properties of these complex spinels are highly tunable via incorporation of cationic vacancies and multiple divalent metals, enabling their application as unique pigments, catalysts, and thermal coatings.
Another significant patent is "Single atom metal doped ceria for CO oxidation and HC hydrogenation/oxidation." This invention involves novel doped oxide and mixed-oxide materials having a metal homogenously dispersed in the form of isolated metal ions throughout the oxide lattice and methods for making the same.
