Yoshio Oofuji has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8513683
    Abstract: An optical integrated semiconductor light emitting device with improved light emitting efficiency is provided by preventing leak current from flowing through a high defect region of the substrate. The optical integrated semiconductor light emitting device includes: a substrate, in which in a low defect region made of crystal having a first average dislocation density, one or more high defect regions having a second average dislocation density higher than the first average dislocation density are included; and a Group III-V nitride semiconductor layer which is formed on the substrate, has a plurality of light emitting device structures, and has a groove in the region including the region corresponding to the high defect region (high defect region).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 31, 2006
    Date of Patent: August 20, 2013
    Assignee: Sony Corporation

  • Patent number: 6995406
    Abstract: In a multi-beam semiconductor laser including nitride III–V compound semiconductor layers stacked on one surface of a substrate of sapphire or other material to form laser structures, and including a plurality of anode electrodes and a plurality of cathode electrodes formed on the nitride III–V compound semiconductor layers, one of the anode electrodes is formed to bridge over one of the cathode electrodes via an insulating film, and another anode electrode is formed to bridge over another of the cathode electrodes via an insulating film.
