OPV are Organic semiconductors made from carbon-rich compounds with a structure tailored to optimize a particular function, such as responsiveness to a particular range of visible light. The use of organic compounds as semiconductors for commercial applications is very new.
OPV are Organic semiconductors made from carbon-rich compounds with a structure tailored to optimize a particular function, such as responsiveness to a particular range of visible light. The use of organic compounds as semiconductors for commercial applications is very new. The Licensee is using it in organic semiconductor based photovoltaic cell technology. A particular advantage of OPV technologies is the low cost of the materials used for the solar energy generating layers. Additionally, all of the fabrication temperatures are low and environmentally “greenâ€, greatly reducing the ancillary costs required in conventional solar cell production. Furthermore, the growth of the thin film layers can be accomplished directly onto the plastic or metal foils and therefore is no need for energy-intensive and expensive epitaxial growth required by inorganic semiconductors such as silicon or GaAs. Rather, there is the opportunity to “print†organic solar cells onto continuous rolls of plastic in an ultra-high-speed manufacturing process. The potential for printed electronics – making solar cells “by the kilometer†rather than on one substrate at a time – makes OPV a potentially revolutionary step in the widespread acceptance and deployment of solar energy. Since the organic films are see-through, lightweight and extremely thin (in this case the entire structure is only 0.1% the thickness of a human hair), they can be made semitransparent and adjusted to any desirable color. As a result, there are significant opportunities to achieve heretofore unrealizable applications such as car paint that allows vehicle coating to act as a source of power for an electric car; windows that can be coated with a clear semi-transparent film that captures photons from the sun to provide power for inside of the building, and fabric that can be made coated in order to make clothes, tents, flags, or lightweight roll-out power mats.

IPSCIO Record ID: 28691
The Licensee has obtained the exclusive rights to License and subLicense to develop, manufacture, market and exploit the Licensor's inventions, patent applications and any issued patents in the case of the Licensee, for the manufacture and sale of photovoltaic cells and photovoltaic applications and in the case of Licensee for the manufacture and sale of quantum dots for electronic and medical applications (excluding photovoltaic applications).
Nanoparticle are materials with features in the nanoscale, which features can be beneficial in a number of applications. Quantum dots are atomic crystals, tiny nanoparticles which can operate as up converters or down converters, emitting either photons or electrons when excited. The color of light emitted varies depending on the size of the quantum dot so that photonic emissions can be tuned by the creation of quantum dots of different sizes. Their unique properties as highly efficient, next generation semiconductors have led to the use of quantum dots in a range of electronic and other applications, including in the biomedical, display and lighting industries. Quantum dots also have applications in solar cells, where their characteristics enable conversion of light energy into electricity, with the potential for significantly higher efficiencies and lower costs than existing technologies, thereby creating the opportunity for a step change in the solar energy industry through the use of quantum dots in printed photovoltaic cells.
With respect to the Licensor's patent applications, the Licensor made a provisional filing for an invention disclosure titled “synthesis of uniform nanoparticle shapes with high selectivity†with the United States Patent and Trademark Office on April 13, 2007 and a subsequent utility filing on April 11, 2008 under the Patent Cooperation Treaty.
PCT enables the U.S. applicant to file one application, 'an international application,' in a standardized format in English in the U.S. Receiving Office (the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office), and have that application acknowledged as a regular national or regional filing in any State or region that is party to the PCT. Dr. Michael Wong is a director of the Licensee Parent and is the inventor of the Licensor’s patent application Licensed by the Licensee.

The Licensee is a start-up solar technology and quantum dot manufacturing firm with the opportunity to acquire a significant amount of both quantum dot and solar photovoltaic market share by commercializing a low cost quantum dot processing technology and a low cost quantum dot based third generation photovoltaic technology/solar cell, pursuant to an exclusive license agreement the University Licensor.
Our objective is to become the first bulk manufacture of high quality tetrapod quantum dots and the first solar cell manufacturer to be able to offer a solar electricity solution that competes on a non-subsidized basis with the price of retail electricity in key markets in North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.

Subject to exceptions in this Agreement, Licensee shall pay royalties to Licensor for the use of MNIP. The royalty shall be based on two main elements: the success of the relevant MNIP in achieving Cost Savings and the success of that MNIP in achieving Added Value. MNIP means Material New IP.
Licensed Products means Wafers, Cells, and/or Modules, as the case may be, in which the Wafers are made using String Ribbon Technology.
Licensed Products means Wafers, Cells, and/or Modules, as the case may be, in which the Wafers are made using String Ribbon Technology. This is to be used in the manufacture of Licensee's solar modules. The Licensor develops and manufactures multi-crystalline silicon wafers utilizing String Ribbonâ„¢ proprietary wafer technology. The technology involves a unique process to produce multi-crystalline silicon wafers by growing thin strips of silicon that are then cut into wafers. This process substantially reduces the amount of silicon and other processing costs required to produce a wafer when compared to conventional sawing processes. Silicon is the key raw material in manufacturing multi-crystalline silicon wafers. The wafers they produce are the primary components of photovoltaic (“PVâ€) cells which, in turn, are used to produce solar panels (also referred to as solar modules).

The rights in Licensed Technology granted by Licensor to Licensee include the right to grant sublicenses as Licensee deems prudent.
Licensor hereby assigns to Licensee any and all of Licensor’s right, title, and interest in and to the mark SUNCONE (the 'Trademark').
Licensor has invented certain technology which may be able to economically collect solar energy using a novel method of non-imaging optics. Among other uses, this technology may be able to be used to produce steam to drive a generator to produce electrical power or to produce desalinated water from seawater or brackish water.
'Licensed Commodity Product' shall mean generated electrical power or desalinated water or other pumped liquids that are generated or purified, as applicable, using any product or device which, or the manufacture, use or sale of which, is covered by a Valid Claim of the Patent Rights. For purposes of clarity, Licensed Commodity Products are a subset of Licensed Products.
'Licensed Product' means any product or device which, or the manufacture, use, or sale of which, is covered by a Valid Claim of the Patent Rights, including but not limited to Licensed Commodity Products. A solar collector that resembles the invention described in Article 1.2 but does not have a flexible film cone reflector does not fit this definition of 'Licensed Product.' If a cable tracking system defined in the patent application of Article 1.2 is used to point an array of solar collectors, then the cable tracking system part of the system may be a 'Licensed Product' if it is covered by a Valid Claim of the Patent Rights.
