Add-on unit or cable connectable to the power supply or signal cord of an electric device
First Claim
1. An add-on unit which is connectable to a power supply cord or to a signal cord of an electric device, wherein the add-on unit comprises:
- an electrically conductive material; and
a coating on at least one surface of the electrically conductive material or on a part of that surface, where the coating comprises ferroelectric and/or piezoelectric and/or pyroelectric material which has a non-centrosymmetric crystal structure resulting in a creation of polarizing effect within at least one of the electrically conductive material and the coating when affected to an electric field occurring when the add-on unit is connected to the power supply cord or to the signal cord of the electric device.

Abstract
The present invention discloses a method for creating spin-affected electric currents passively and feeding them into electric devices. The invention can be realized as either a rectangular black box incorporating coatings on top of and on the bottom of a conducting volume of material, or by coating a round-shaped wire or thread(s) of a cable. This is obtained by using a specific coating material on the conducting piece of material. The material may be piezoelectric, such as silicon dioxide (i.e. quartz) but also silicon carbide (SiC) may be used. Also, mixtures and composite arrangements are possible in order to create a coating. The manufactured add-on unit, when supplied with the input power or input signal, will act as an electron spin feeding device to the electric device because the electrons will be moving strongly within the interface area of the coating and the conducting material with aligned spins. The resulting effect also lasts longer within the electric device than just the time when the add-on unit is connected to the electric device.
