He has made significant contributions to the field of laser technology, particularly with his innovative patent that enhances the functionality of flashlamp pumped lasers. His work is recognized for its technical sophistication and practical applications.

Latest Patents

Joseph E Carvalho holds a patent for an "Electronic pulse width controller for flashlamp pumped lasers." This invention allows a flashlamp pumped laser to emit a series of narrow pulse width laser pulses in quick succession. The control circuit associated with the flashlamp receives firing signals of limited pulse duration, igniting and extinguishing the flashlamp in accordance with the leading and trailing edges of a single firing signal pulse. The laser generates a coherent light pulse corresponding to the pumping flashlamp pulse. The flashlamp control circuit includes a main capacitor that stores electric charge sufficient to provide current to the flashlamp for several pulses in succession. Additionally, the circuit features a trigger capacitor that supplies current through a transformer coupled to the flashlamp to initiate current conduction. Both circuit paths are connected to an Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT), which serves as a switch to turn the flashlamp on and off in response to a firing signal pulse.
