美光再度向美国指控长江存储
Guan Cha Zhe Wang· 2026-01-28 05:33
美国专利商标局(USPTO)近期披露的一项正式裁定显示,该局已撤销了此前准予对美光科技的两项重要专利进 行多方复审(IPR)的决定,并且驳回了长江存储发起的专利无效请求。 裁定书显示,长江存储发起的两项针对美光拥有的专利(专利号:US 8,945,996 B2 与 US 10,872,903 B2)的无效 请求已被正式终止。美国专利商标局局长约翰·斯奎尔斯在裁决书中宣称,该局驳回长江存储请求的原因在于 其"未能履行法律义务"。 据悉,这两项专利均涉及闪存的重要制造工艺。如果这两项专利被判无效,将在一定程度上削弱美光在与长江存 储的"诉讼大战"中的主动权。 此前,斯奎尔斯已于去年11月发布命令,要求长江存储解释:鉴于其已被美国商务部列入"实体清单",为何该局 仍要承接长江存储针对美光的专利挑战。斯奎尔斯表示,长江存储发起的专利挑战,可能违背所谓美国的"外交 此前,彭博社分析指出,斯奎尔斯及其之前的代理局长寇克·斯图尔特,扩大了拒绝专利挑战申请的自由裁量因 素,以所谓"紧迫的经济、公共卫生或国家安全利益"为由拒绝了许多企业的诉求。 早在去年11月,中国商务部曾就相关问题回应称:中方注意到,美方近期以"国家安全"为 ...

韩国芯片设备公司,遭专利猎杀
半导体行业观察· 2026-01-14 01:38
Core Viewpoint - Lam Research has become a significant concern for South Korean materials, parts, and equipment (MP&E) companies due to its aggressive patent infringement lawsuits against them, despite most cases being dismissed by South Korean courts [1][2]. Group 1: Patent Infringement Lawsuits - Since the outbreak of the Japan-South Korea semiconductor materials trade dispute in 2020, Lam Research has filed 12 patent infringement lawsuits against South Korean companies, with 9 occurring after the establishment of its R&D center in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province in 2022 [1]. - The number of patents registered by Lam Research in South Korea surged from 68 in 2020 to 344 by 2025, raising concerns in the South Korean semiconductor equipment industry about the implications of such extensive patent registrations [1]. - Lam Research's lawsuits are seen as a tactic to delay the technological advancements of South Korean competitors, as the company can afford to file lawsuits without the immediate need for winning them [2]. Group 2: Legal Outcomes and Industry Impact - In a notable case, Lam Research lost a patent infringement lawsuit against CMTX, which led to CMTX successfully invalidating Lam's patent. The court ruled that Lam's patent lacked creativity, highlighting the challenges faced by Lam in its legal pursuits [3]. - Lam Research also faced defeat in a lawsuit against MP&E company PSK, where two of its claimed patents were declared invalid. In the past year alone, six of Lam's patents were invalidated [3]. Group 3: Calls for Government Action - There is a growing demand for government intervention to protect domestic technologies, as the ongoing patent lawsuits have adversely affected many companies, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises [4]. - The South Korean Intellectual Property Office provides legal consulting services to companies embroiled in patent disputes, but critics argue that the number of companies not receiving assistance is increasing due to the widespread nature of Lam Research's lawsuits [4]. - Lawmakers emphasize the need to minimize damages to local enterprises and prevent unnecessary litigation, especially during a period of significant growth in the semiconductor industry [5].
