Latest Patents
One of Schwindt's latest patents is titled "Optically pumped, radio-frequency atomic magnetometry with feedback stabilization." This invention incorporates a feedback system for stabilizing the magnetic bias field and suppressing unwanted background fields. The magnetic bias field is applied to a vapor cell containing host atoms of two different species, each resonating at a different Larmor frequency. One species provides feedback for stabilizing the bias field, creating a stabilizing magnetometer portion that nulls out unwanted background fields. The other species allows for magnetic field detection or signal reception on a radio communication frequency of interest, forming a signal magnetometer portion that enables detection of the signal.
Another notable patent is "Passively pumped, polycrystalline ceramic high and ultra-high vacuum chambers." This invention discloses a sealed, passively pumped vacuum chamber made from polycrystalline ceramic, such as alumina. The vacuum chamber includes windows made from transparent ceramic, like sapphire, to allow optical access while minimizing helium permeation. The components of the vacuum chamber are joined through laser welding or furnace brazing, and the completed chamber can operate at high or ultra-high vacuum pressures for extended periods.
