Electron Tunneling Putative Energy Field Analyzer

A device for detecting and analyzing vital fields, the device comprising:

• a) control circuitry configured to generate a first control signal at a first sampling frequency and a second control signal at a second sampling frequency different from the first sampling frequency;
• b) a detector in electrical communication with the control circuitry, the detector comprising:
• i. a Schottky diode configured to maintain a tunnel current caused by electron tunneling and having a tunneling region on which vital waves from the vital field are incident;
• ii. a pulse generator in electrical communication with the Schottky diode and configured to provide current pulses to the Schottky diode, the current pulses each generating a peak tunnel current in the Schottky diode;
• and
• iii. electromagnetic shielding substantially enclosing the Schottky diode and the pulse generator such that the electromagnetic shielding prevents unwanted electromagnetic interference with the tunnel current but allows the vital waves to pass;
• and
• c) signal processing circuitry in electrical communication with the detector;
• wherein:
• a) the control circuitry sends the first control signal to the detector;
• b) the first control signal causes the pulse generator to send current pulses to the Schottky diode at the first sampling frequency;
• c) an input frequency from the vital waves mixes with a harmonic of the first sampling frequency in the tunneling region of the Schottky diode during the peak tunnel current, generating a first mixed signal having a first beat frequency;
• d) the Schottky diode sends the first mixed signal to the signal processing circuitry;
• e) the control circuitry sends the second control signal to the detector;
• f) the second control signal causes the pulse generator to send current pulses to the Schottky diode at the second sampling frequency;
• g) the input frequency from the vital waves mixes with a harmonic of the second sampling frequency in the tunneling region of the Schottky diode during the peak tunnel current, generating a second mixed signal having a second beat frequency;
• h) the Schottky diode sends the second mixed signal to the signal processing circuitry;
• and
• i) the signal processing circuitry determines the input frequency from the vital waves using the first and second beat frequencies.

A method of detecting and analyzing a vital field, the method comprising:

• a) positioning a detector in the vital field so that vital waves from the vital field are incident upon the detector;
• b) collecting spectral data of the vital waves from the detector;
• and
• c) comparing the spectral data to records in a reference database to determine if the spectral data matches information gathered on known vital fields.
