Patents by Inventor Yi-Yang Chen

Yi-Yang Chen 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: 11960881
    Abstract: A system and method for simplifying the creation of documentation, and especially software documentation. A software application, referred to as a source metadata tagger and document compiler is used to add metadata to a final output document. This metadata contains identifiers that are associated with various source files. In this way, the system can easily determine which source file is being reviewed and/or flagged by the reviewer. This information can be used by the ticketing/notification system to create a work item for the appropriate developer or development group. This is vastly simpler than the current system, where human intervention is required to determine which source file is being flagged.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 24, 2020
    Date of Patent: April 16, 2024
    Assignee: Silicon Laboratories Inc.

  • Patent number: 7754107
    Abstract: A carbon nanotube is described, to which quantum dots are attached through non-covalent bonding via linking molecules bonded to the quantum dots. A method of visualizing a carbon nanotube is also described, wherein quantum dots are attached to the carbon nanotube through non-covalent bonding via linking molecules bonded to the quantum dots, and then the quantum dots are made emit light. This invention allows carbon nanotubes, even those in a wet condition, to be visualized by a simple fluorescent optical microscope. Thereby, the difficulties on preparing specimens and the need of sophisticated instruments can be reduced. This invention also exhibits great potential for the application of carbon nanotubes under a wet condition.
