TvU was formed early in 1993 to perform multidisciplinary research and development for the advancement of science and to create novel commercial processes and products. TvU creates fundamental innovations that solve long-standing problems by applying state-of-the-art advances from apparently unrelated scientific and industrial specialties. These concepts are developed in detail to make them practical, to maximize their potential, and to explore their implications for future work.

Thoughtventions Unlimited (TvU) is a multifaceted business that centers on applying diverse technology to enhance commercial products and government programs. Current TvU business lines include US Government research and development projects, commercial laboratory and research equipment products.

TvU's business is both local and national, using the sophisticated skills of its personnel to solve its customers' technical and business problems and to pursue its own research and development projects. TvU adapts to the goals of its funding sources, which tend to be short-term reward, but but it is committed to the development of a variety of long term technologies which have the potential to be major advances in their field.

Thoughtventions Unlimited offers its services for Research and Development of new products and processes in a wide variety of applied physical sciences. TvU excels in multidisciplinary research into novel concepts that must be made into real devices. TvU is able to combine the abilities of R&D expertise with the realities of product engineering.

TvU currently occupies 3,000 square feet of office and laboratory space with a wide variety of sophisticated experimental research and development equipment. TvU has invested its company profit to fund development projects and to acquire a variety of sophisticated furnace, mechanical, optical, electronic, and vacuum equipment, as well as fabrication, testing and support equipment.

An optics lab centers on a single sapphire fiber imaging calibration station. A vacuum processing lab centers on a general purpose high vacuum station. A cryogenics lab centers on a Koch Helium Liquefier and Janis Supertran Liquid Helium Cryostat with optical access. Air and vacuum furnaces (to above 2200°C) are used for material processing experiments, and transparent furnaces and associated hardware permit total optical access to small pieces undergoing heat treatment at temperatures up 1200°C.
