US Patent Issued to Georgia Tech Research on June 3 for "Piezoelectric resonant-based mechanical frequency combs" (Georgia Inventors)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., June 4 -- United States Patent no. 12,321,079, issued on June 3, was assigned to Georgia Tech Research Corp. (Atlanta).

"Piezoelectric resonant-based mechanical frequency combs" was invented by Azadeh Ansari (Atlanta) and Mingyo Park (Atlanta).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "The present disclosure describes systems and methods for novel phononic frequency combs and related sensing techniques realized by a piezoelectric multimode or single-mode mechanical resonator based on parametric pumping. In one embodiment of such a system, a single frequency electrical input provides an electrical signal comprising an amplitude and a single input frequency to a single-mode mechanical reson...
