In the dispute between China Micro-Semiconductor and Veeco patents, China Micro should be considered to be slightly better. It is reported that the Patent Reexamination Board of the State Intellectual Property Office has established that the patents involved in Zhongwei Semiconductor are valid patents.

The reporter learned from the official WeChat of China Micro-Semiconductor that the Patent Reexamination Board of the State Intellectual Property Office (referred to as the “Patent Reexamination Board”) made a review decision on November 24, vetoing Vyco Precision Instruments International Trading (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.

Earlier this month, some media reported that the US MOCVD (Metal Organic Compound Vapor Deposition Equipment) equipment factory Veeco announced that the US District Court for the Eastern District of New York agreed to a preliminary injunction request against SGL Carbon, LLC (SGL), prohibiting SGL from selling Veeco patents. The wafer carrier (ie, graphite disk) used in the MOCVD technology of the technology includes a graphite disk designed specifically for the Chinese micro-semiconductor of the MOCVD equipment manufacturer.

With the news fermentation, the event also caused fluctuations in A shares. On the 22nd, the stock of Aoyang Shunchang, which bought imported MOCVD equipment, touched the daily limit several times, while the share price of Zhongwei Semiconductor's major customer Huacan Optoelectronics almost fell to the limit. .

In this regard, China Micro Semiconductor said that it will promote the above problems in three aspects: First, actively develop the second and third channel suppliers, it is expected to complete the product verification in one month, and solve the batch problem in two or three months. The supply of graphite discs to customers can be resumed before the Spring Festival. Second, SGL has filed a counterclaim in the US and is expected to make progress soon. Third, in terms of patents, the company has filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Veeco in China.

Zhongwei Semiconductor disclosed that it officially sued Veeco Shanghai in July this year, accusing the TurboDiskEPIK700 model of MOCVD equipment infringing on the Chinese patent of Zhongwei's substrate tray synchronization, requiring it to stop infringement and claiming 100 million infringement. penalty for damages. After the infringement of the micro-semiconductor, Veeco Shanghai filed a request for invalidation of the patent for the China-Micro Semiconductor to the Patent Reexamination Board.

For the review decision made by the Patent Reexamination Board, Yin Zhiwei, Chairman and CEO of Zhongwei Semiconductor, said that since its establishment in 2004, as a supplier of high-end manufacturing equipment to world-class chip and LED and power device manufacturers. Has always attached great importance to intellectual property rights, has always independently developed technology and established intellectual property rights, and also respects the intellectual property rights of customers and competitors. For more than a decade, Zhongwei Semiconductor has withstood several IP disputes at home and abroad. The test has been in an invincible position.
