Title: Howard E. Williams: Innovator in Atomic Frequency Standards
Introduction
Howard E. Williams is a notable inventor based in Reseda, California. He has made significant contributions to the field of atomic frequency standards, holding a total of 2 patents. His work focuses on improving microwave cavity resonators and magnetic coupling technologies.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is for a cavity resonator designed for atomic frequency standards. This improved microwave cavity resonator features a generally rectangular hollow metallic body that supports the TE.sub.101 mode of standing wave. A dielectric element is strategically positioned within the cavity to concentrate the electromagnetic field, achieving a compact design. This design allows for a preselected, substantially uniform magnetic field to be coupled into an alkali metal vapor absorption cell within the resonator.
Another significant patent involves a cylindrical coil form for magnetic coupling with an irradiated nuclear magnetic resonance gas sample. This coil form is equipped with peripheral and longitudinal grooves that are perpendicular to the coil's axis, providing a precisely directed longitudinal magnetic field. The first coil is wound in the peripheral grooves, with adjacent turns interconnected by short longitudinal sections of wire. Additional coils are included for magnetic coupling transverse to the axis of the coil, enhancing the overall functionality of the device.
