Using Quantum-Like Behavior of Elastic-Waves for Quantum Computing Using Phi-Bits
This technology describes a method in which phonons can be manipulated for use in encoding information, for use with quantum computing-type algorithms. Rather than qubits, this method produces φ-bits, which are achieved through operating on the phonon wave phase. Such control results from fermion-like behavior of phonons, thus allowing for utilization...

Fabrication of Pillared Graphene
This invention is a method of fabricating pillared graphene. This is accomplished by first constraining a layer of fullerenes between graphene sheets (the proto structure). Tether molecules may be employed to help chemically bind the fullerenes to the graphene at attachment points. Energy is applied to the proto structure via chemical reaction, thermal...
