Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080202038Responsive Structural Elements - The invention is a structural element including an elongate member having a first end and second end and defining a cross-section. The structural element further includes a sensor, secured to the elongate member, for detecting at least one pre-selected indicator. Advantageously, the elongate member is responsive to the pre-selected indicator.08-28-2008

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110079728RADIATION DETECTOR, METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A RADIATION DETECTOR AND USE OF THE DETECTOR FOR MEASURING RADIATION - A radiation detector is disclosed. The detector has an entrance opening etched through a low-resistivity volume of silicon, a sensitive volume of high-resistivity silicon for converting the radiation particles into detectable charges, and a passivation layer between the low and high-resistivity silicon layers. The detector also has electrodes built in the form of vertical channels for collecting the charges generated in the sensitive volume, and read-out electronics for generating signals based on the collected charges.04-07-2011

20110095194NEUTRON DETECTOR WITH NEUTRON CONVERTER, METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE NEUTRON DETECTOR AND NEUTRON IMAGING APPARATUS - A detector for detecting neutrons includes a neutron reactive material interacting with neutrons to be detected and releasing ionizing radiation reaction products in relation to the interactions. It also includes a first semiconductor element being coupled with the neutron reactive material and adapted to interact with the ionizing radiation reaction products and provide electrical charges proportional to the energy of the ionizing radiation reaction products. In addition electrodes are arranged in connection with the first semiconductor element for providing charge collecting areas for collecting the electrical charges and to provide electrically readable signal proportional to the collected electrical charges. In the detector the neutron reactive material is arranged so that the incident neutrons to be detected interact with the neutron reactive material essentially in the portion nearest to the charge collecting areas provided by the electrodes in the first semiconductor element to which the neutron reactive material is coupled with.04-28-2011
