OSRAM has extended the existing license with Everlight Electronics Co. Ltd about manufacturing and sales of white and colored LEDs with conversion technology for all applications. These patents are owned by OSRAM. In return, Everlight granted to OSRAM a license to use housing patents of Everlight. This agreement paves the way for a closer cooperation between the two companies.
The licensed conversion technology was developed by the OSRAM subsidiary Opto Semiconductors. It enables the production of white or colored LEDs using blue emitting InGaN (Indium Gallium Nitride) based chips and suitable fluorescent converters. The agreement extends the right of Everlight to use this OSRAM intellectual property in all areas of application without limitations, including automotive and general lighting. In addition, the parties agreed on a crosslicense that allows OSRAM to use Everlight's housing patents.
