Osram GmbH, of Munich, Germany, announced it has signed a patent cross-license contract with Lite-On Technology Corp., a Taiwan optoelectronics manufacturer. Osram has granted Lite-On a royalty-bearing license to manufacture and sell surface-mount, light-emitting diodes (SMT LEDs) and white LEDs with conversion technology for which Osram holds patents. Typical applications include backlighting for mobile phones and car radio displays. Osram Opto Semiconductors, a subsidiary of Osram GmbH, developed conversion technology for LEDs that enables white LEDs to be produced using blue-emitting indium gallium nitride-based chips and a suitable fluorescent converter. Osram holds patents for several SMT LEDs packages and mounting forms. SMTs are very small, low-profile devices that allow greater design flexibility and facilitate processing in industrial series manufacturing. . . .
