Patents by Inventor Wolf Jakowetz

Wolf Jakowetz 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).

  • Method for producing a plurality of semiconductor components
    Patent number: 6025251
    Abstract: A semiconductor component includes a semiconductor body having a front side, a rear side and at least one curved side surface. As viewed from outside the semiconductor body, the at least one curved side surface is convex adjacent the rear side and concave adjacent the front side. The rear side has a greater area than the front side. A method is also provided for producing a plurality of the semiconductor components.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 9, 1999
    Date of Patent: February 15, 2000
    Assignee: Siemens Aktiengesellschaft
    Inventors: Wolf Jakowetz, Helmut Fischer
  • Light-emitting diode having a curved side surface for coupling out light

  • Opto-electronic semiconductor component
    Patent number: 5218223
    Abstract: An opto-electronic semiconductor component having a light transmission or receiving property including a light emitting or detecting active zone lying parallel to the principle surface of the semiconductor crystal is formed so that it detects or emits light directed parallel to the active zone with high efficiency. This enables the component to be hybridize with other electrical, electro-optical or optical elements in a single plane. At least one lateral surface of the semiconductor crystal is inclined at an angle to the principle surface of the component such that light directed into or from the crystal in a direction parallel to the active zone experiences deflection by refraction or reflection toward or away from the active zone.
