US Patent:

20220263005, Aug 18, 2022

Filed:

Nov 23, 2021

Appl. No.:

17/533205

Inventors:

- Scottsdale AZ, US
TROY HOWE - Scottsdale AZ, US

Assignee:

HOWE INDUSTRIES LLC - Scottsdale AZ

International Classification:

H01L 35/30
H01L 35/26

Abstract:

A thermoelectric cooler including a thermoelectric junction and a radiation source. The thermoelectric cooler includes n-type material, p-type material, and an electrical power source. The radiation source emits ionizing radiation that increases electrical conductivity of the n and p type materials. Also detailed is a method of using radiation to reach high coefficient of performance (COP) values with a thermoelectric cooler that includes providing a thermoelectric cooler and a radiation source, with the thermoelectric cooler including an n-type material, p-type material, an electrical power source, and emitting ionizing radiation with the radiation source to increase the electrical conductivity which strips electrons from the n-type material, the p-type material, or both the n-type material and p-type material from their nuclei with the electrons then free to move within the material.

Assignee:

NU Planet Holding Co. - Scottsdale AZ

International Classification:

G21G 1/12
G21K 5/08

Abstract:

A radioisotope generator including a laser, a volume of target isotope, and nanoparticles in a solid, liquid, or gas state is provided. In at least one aspect, the radioisotope generator accelerates the decay rate of an isotope, with the laser being used to accelerate the decay of the isotope for the production of desired product isotopes.
