The sword of Damour in China's LED industry

In 2008, the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics, the magic of the picture color from the Chinese jinlixiang Technology Co. ltd.;

In 2009, the 60 anniversary of National Day parade, a huge screen on Tiananmen square from the China Liyade Electronic Technology Co ltd;

In 2010, Shanghai World Expo opening ceremony, 10 thousand square meters of semiconductor light emitting diode (Light Emitting Diode, hereinafter referred to as LED) from China retop large screen display technology Co. ltd.......

In this seemingly endless scenery behind the enterprise, hidden huge potential of China's LED industry development. Reporters found that, at present, the global LED technology and patents, more than half of the United States, Japan, Germany and other developed countries have a large number of companies. These patents for core technology patents, domestic enterprises especially small and medium-sized enterprises is difficult to find a breakthrough. In addition, these foreign companies have been in the world, especially in China, the deployment of a patent network, like the head of a sword of Damour. China's LED industry in order to achieve long-term development, we must break through the layers of these patents.

The present situation is developing rapidly, but the scale is small and the industrial chain is not complete

As the world's most watched new generation of light source, LED because of its high brightness, low heat, long life, non-toxic, recyclable and other advantages, is known as the most promising prospects for the development of green lighting in twenty-first Century. China's LED industry started in 1970s, after nearly 40 years of development, has been formed in Shanghai, Dalian, Nanchang, Xiamen, Shenzhen, Yangzhou and Shijiazhuang 7 national semiconductor lighting project industrialization base, the products are widely used in landscape lighting and general lighting field, China has become the world's largest producer of electric appliances and lighting second lighting appliance exporter.

However, the LED industry research institutions - set LED inside China (LED), a statistical data show that as of the end of 2009, there are more than 3000 LED enterprises, of which, the annual output value of only 100 million. However, in these 140 companies, there is no one company's annual sales of more than 1 billion yuan, more than $500 million is only a few, mostly in between $200 million to $. Visible, although the number of LED companies in China, but the scale is generally small.

Reporters in the domestic random selection of a LED enterprise interview. Guangdong Dongguan KingSun Au Optronics Co (hereinafter referred to as KingSun) was founded in 1993, is the earliest LED product production enterprise, and Tsinghua University jointly established LED Lighting Technology Research Institute, many domestic projects such as the National Theatre of Beijing Olympic green lighting, road lighting, Shanghai F1 autodrome lighting, lighting the Olympic venues are from Tsinghua University the enterprise. However, this is the development of a domestic LED industry Pathfinder, in the face of Japan, the United States, Germany's Patent Containment, but also had to bypass to avoid.

"R & D KingSun mainly concentrated in the downstream application fields, relatively less in the upper and middle reaches of the R & D investment. This is mainly because of the large foreign companies and some enterprises in Taiwan, China has monopolized most of the core technology of LED, domestic enterprises can only turn their attention to the lower content of the downstream application market. KingSun intellectual property Commissioner Wan Wei in Chinese intellectual property news reporter to interview, bluntly about the current situation of the domestic LED enterprises.

According to the reporter, the current industrial pattern in Asia, North America, Europe's three largest regional center has formed a global, Nichia chemical, synthesized by TOYOTA of Japan, the United States and Kerrey, general electric and OSRAM of Germany as the core of the patent technology competition. American and Japanese enterprises with monopoly advantages in wafer, chip technology and equipment, the European business advantage in the application of technology is prominent, while China's LED is still at a low level, about 80% are concentrated in landscape lighting, traffic lights and other applications market, involving in automotive lighting, large screen high-end the product is relatively small.

The crux of the lack of core patents, research cooperation loose

From Japan, the United States, Europe, the five largest international manufacturers on behalf of the highest level of today's LED, has a significant impact on industrial development. This effect is not only reflected in the product and income, more important is the monopoly of technology, more than 50% of the core patents are in the hands of these five manufacturers. An industry analyst briefed reporters.

With the vigorous development of the domestic LED market, more and more foreign enterprises turn their attention to China, especially in recent years, the number of patent applications filed in China's LED field has increased year by year. Reporters at the development research center of the State Intellectual Property Office to provide a "semiconductor lighting patent risk analysis report" that, as of the end of 2008, the global 22 countries and regions have applied for a patent in China, the obvious technique advantage state for a higher proportion of patent in our country, the top five countries respectively. Japan, South Korea, the United States, Germany and Holland. Among them, the number of patent applications in Japan is far ahead of 1306 patents, accounting for about 24% of the total number of applications, the remaining four countries accounted for the total application of the total of 7%, 5%, 4%, and 3%.

In terms of effective patents, the proportion of domestic patent applications and foreign patent applications in China is about 4 to 5. But in these domestic patent applications, the Taiwan region occupies a large share of its effective invention patents accounted for 53%. In other words, if the removal of Taiwan, the mainland and abroad in terms of the number of patents, patent gold content
