Electromagnetic systems with double-resonant spiral coil components

Spiral coils generate very powerful electromagnetic fields by operating with two different but simultaneous resonant behaviors. Quarter-wave resonance is established by adjusting the frequency (and wavelength) of a radiofrequency (RF) voltage source until the length of the spiral conductor is equal to ¼ of the wavelength of the alternating voltage. This generates an electromagnetic standing wave with at least one peak node and at least one null node. Inductive-capacitive (L / C) resonance is established by optimizing the thickness and width of the wire ribbon used to make the spiral coil. When inductance and capacitance are balanced, the current response will synchronize with the voltage input, creating in-phase behavior, minimal total impedance, and maximal power output. If two such coils are placed near each other, they will create an extremely powerful electromagnetic field between them, which can promote chemical and plasma reactions involving charged particles such as ions or plasma particles, possibly including nuclear fusion reactions.

Ionic plasma deposition of anti-microbial surfaces and the anti-microbial surfaces resulting therefrom

A process for depositing anti-microbial materials into or onto the surface of a substrate using ionic plasma deposition. The process includes the steps of providing a cathode of target material having anti-microbial potential which is disposed within a partial vacuum, powering the cathode to generate a plasma discharge for ionizing the target material into a plasma of constituent particles. The plasma particles are reacted with ionized gas, and are selected, controlled and directed toward the substrate by electromagnetic fields generated by at least one first anode adjacent to the cathode and at least one second anode positioned adjacent the first anode. Additional anode structures and charged screens provide further control of the plasma constituents. The plasma constituents, comprising the anti-microbial materials, are deposited on the substrate as dispersed ordered structures which form an anti-microbial surface into and onto the substrate.

Voltage control sensor and control interface for radio frequency power regulation in a plasma reactor

A plasma reactor system with controlled DC bias for manufacturing semiconductor wafers and the like. The reactor system includes a plasma chamber, a plasma generating coil and a chuck including a chuck electrode. The chuck supports a workpiece within the chamber. The plasma reactor system further includes a pair of generators, one of which supplies a radio frequency signal to the plasma generating coil. The second generator delivers a RF signal which to the chuck electrode and acts to control DC bias at the workpiece. Peak voltage sensor circuitry and set point signal circuitry controls the power output of the generator, and a matching network coupled between the generator and the first electrode matches the impedance of the RF signal with the load applied by the plasma. DC bias determines the energy with which plasma particles impact the surface of a workpiece and thereby determines the rate at which the process is performed. This DC bias forms at the surface of the workpiece upon generation of a plasma in the plasma chamber and is affected by the RF signal applied to the chuck electrode. Since power losses within the match network are variable and unpredictable, the peak voltage at the electrode can not be consistently maintained by simply applying a predetermined generator output. By monitoring the peak voltage at the electrode and generating a corresponding control signal to control the generator, a consistent DC bias and corresponding process rate can be maintained.

Method and apparatus for applying plasma particles to a liquid and use for disinfecting water

The invention provides a method and apparatus for creating plasma particles and applying the plasma particles to a liquid. Liquid feedstock (e.g., water and / or hydrocarbons mixed with biomass) is pumped through a pipeline; the single-phase stream is then transformed into a biphasic liquid-and-gas stream inside a chamber. The transformation is achieved by transitioning the stream from a high pressure zone to a lower-pressure zone. The pressure drop may occur when the stream further passes through a device for atomizing liquid. Inside the chamber, an electric field is generated with an intensity level that exceeds the threshold of breakdown voltage of the biphasic medium leading to a generation of a plasma state. Furthermore, the invention provides an energy-efficient highly adaptable and versatile method and apparatus for sanitizing water using plasma particles to inactivate biological agents contaminating water.
