Patents by Inventor Rudolf Buchberger

Rudolf Buchberger 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: 8754444
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a first device and a second device, which are implemented laterally next to each other in a substrate. A recombination zone is implemented in the substrate between the first device and the second device, so that diffusing charge carriers recombine between the first device and the second device.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 3, 2010
    Date of Patent: June 17, 2014
    Assignee: Infineon Technologies AG
    Inventors: Rudolf Buchberger, Hans-Joachim Schulze

  • Patent number: 7528361
    Abstract: A semiconductor opto device is disclosed. One embodiment provides an optodiode. The optodiode has a relative spectral sensitivity that is adapted to the relative spectral sensitivity of an eye, wherein, correspondingly adapted to the spectral sensitivity of the eye, a switch-on or switch-off process of the optothyristor or optotriac is triggered.

  • Patent number: 5654559
    Abstract: An optical coupling device and method for manufacturing the same is disclosed wherein a light-emitting semiconductor transmitter chip is secured to a light-detecting semiconductor receiver chip via a transparent insulating layer, a structured spacer layer and a transparent connecting layer. The resultant optocoupler has a high coupling factor and may be reliably manufactured into SMT compatible packages.
