MILWAUKEE, Wis.—(EIN Newswire)— Ingantec Corporation, an emerging leader in breakthrough technology that solves the material and engineering challenges of microLED, today announced that it has entered into an exclusive patent licensing agreement with the Regents of the University of California through its UC Santa Barbara (UCSB) campus.
Under the agreement, Ingantec has acquired the exclusive rights to develop high performance optoelectronics and electronics materials using III-nitride epitaxial and device structures. The licensed UCSB patents cover innovative systems and methods for achieving industry-leading devices using Metal-Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD) as well as other growth and fabrication processes.
“The breakthrough design and methods, based on research originally carried out by researchers at UCSB, may enable next-generation products that are more efficient than conventional microLED displays,” said Claire T. Driscoll, UCSB’s Director of the Office of Technology & Industry Alliances (TIA). “We are excited to partner with Ingantec to advance these technologies.”
“There is a need for improved displays in augmented reality and virtual reality (AR/VR) headsets, automobiles, smart phones, tablets, PCs, and TVs,” commented Stella Chan, Co-founder and President of Ingantec. “I am thrilled that UCSB and Ingantec have worked together on this patent portfolio, and we look forward to future collaborations as Ingantec continues to harness these technologies in more advanced display applications.”
