Patents by Inventor Eric Ting-Shan Pan

Eric Ting-Shan Pan 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: 9023729
    Abstract: A method of growth and transfer of epitaxial structures from semiconductor crystalline substrate(s) to an assembly substrate. Using this method, the assembly substrate encloses one or more semiconductor materials and defines a wafer size that is equal to or larger than the semiconductor crystalline substrate for further wafer processing. The process also provides a unique platform for heterogeneous integration of diverse material systems and device technologies onto one single substrate.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 21, 2012
    Date of Patent: May 5, 2015

  • Publication number: 20140374924
    Abstract: Methods and structures for heterogeneous integration of diverse material systems and device technologies onto a single substrate incorporate layer transfer techniques into an epitaxy level packaging process. A planar substrate surface of multiple epitaxial areas of different materials can be heterogeneously integrated with a substrate material. Complex assembly and lattice engineering is significantly reduced. Microsystems of different circuits made from different materials can be built from a single wafer Fab line employing the claimed processes.
    Type: Application
