Apparatus and Method for Closed Loop Control of Heliostat Motion
This invention is an apparatus and method for controlling the motion of heliostats, which are mirrors that reflect sunlight towards a common target. For heliostats to be maximally efficient, they must be able to shift in orientation precisely as the Sun’s relative position to the Earth changes. This technology utilizes a beamsplitter perpendicular...

Compressing Ion-Beam Shutter
The compressing ion-beam ion shutter developed at The University of Arizona is composed of a series of electrically charged screens. By varying the relative voltages on the screens, the flow of ions into the detector chamber is blocked or opened. When the shutter is first opened, ions accumulate between the screens. When the shutter voltage is changed,...
