1. EU: Qualcomm acquired NXP to see the outcome next year Google faces more allegations;
(Reuters) Margrethe Vestager, EU competition commissioner, said on Wednesday that the European Union may, for Qualcomm's proposed $ 38 billion acquisition of NXP Semiconductors, The verdict will be made in 2018.
Informed sources said in October that in order to win the approval of the EU's antitrust regulators, Qualcomm has already offered to waive some patents when it acquired NXP Semiconductors, the largest deal in the history of the semiconductor industry to help make Qualcomm a fast The leader in the growing automotive chip market.
In addition, Vestag said during his visit to Beijing on Wednesday that Google will face more allegations.
In June of this year, the European Commission imposed a record 2.4 billion euros (about 2.8 billion U.S. dollars) on Google and asked Google to stop favoring its shopping service.
2. To send a gift to welcome the new chief lawyer Apple;
From a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the media found that Apple Inc.'s incoming lead counsel, Katherine Adams, received a generous bonus package in the form of restricted stock, the first part of which was covered by 57,482 restrictive The stock will be distributed on May 13, 2018, November and November 2019, respectively, on the 13th, provided that Adams is still in office.
The second part of the bonus, consisting of 57,482 restricted shares, will be issued on October 1, 2020, but the percentage will be based on Apple's relative shareholder return for the period from November 13, 2017 to September 26, 2020 Calculate.
Based on Apple's performance in comparison with the S & P 500 over the next three years, Adams earned a second-hand finish of up to 100%, or Apple's poor performance, which could barely be reached.
Based on Apple's closing price of $ 169.08 Wednesday, the value of 57,482 restricted shares in each segment is slightly higher than the value of 9.7 million, which means that Adams can get up to 19.4 million US dollars.According to Apple's performance in the next three years, the amount may be Will float.
Apple regularly issues restricted shares to senior executives as a motivation to motivate them to stay in the company.
Adams will take over as former General Counsel and Bruce Sewell, Senior Vice President, Law and Global Security, by the end of this year, former General Counsel for Honeywell.
Apple's general counsel oversees all legal matters including corporate governance, intellectual property, litigation disputes and securities compliance, global security and privacy.
3. Universal in the United States to apply for battery patent subsidiary: charging 1 minute battery life 800 km;
Higher mileage, shorter charging time, more safe to use ... These are the major research institutions and enterprises in the pursuit of the goal of electric vehicles.Nowadays, the electric car manufacturer Fisker (Fisker) is applying for a solid state Battery patent, can make electric car mileage increased to 500 miles (about 805 km), charging time reduced to 1 minute.The company plans to 2023 by the commercial use of the battery.
Founded in 2005 in the State of California, USA, Fisker was founded by BMW's former designer Henrik Fisker and in February 2014 Fisker was renamed as a card by China Universal Group Karma.
According to a report by the Daily Mail on November 14 this week, Fesco submitted a patent for a solid-state battery, a patent that addresses new materials and manufacturing processes, The required energy density, power and cost goals and to promote the promotion and application of electric vehicles is very important.
Solid-state battery is a kind of battery which uses solid electrode and solid electrolyte.Usually often used batteries are mostly liquid batteries, the electrolyte is mostly liquid.As the solid-state battery is relatively high power weight, it is a very good battery for electric vehicles.
However, earlier studies have shown that there are many limitations in the commercial use of solid-state batteries, such as low electrode current densities, limited temperature ranges, limited materials availability, high cost, complicated manufacturing processes, etc. In addition, The failure mode affects the performance of the solid-state battery, which includes high contact resistance in the electrode layer structure and low ion mobility, resulting in a lower discharge capacity of the battery.
Patented schematic
Fisker claims that their solid-state batteries are designed to overcome the challenge by using three-dimensional electrodes that have 25 times the surface area of conventional solid-state battery thin-film electrodes and have high electrical and ionic conductivities for fast charging And low temperature operation.
So, the energy density of this solid battery is 2.5 times that of ordinary lithium-ion battery.With the continuous improvement of material and manufacturing level, Fiskos predicts that the cost of such a battery will be one-third of that of the conventional lithium-ion battery by 2020 In addition, the battery explosion risk is relatively low.
Fabio Albano, vice president of battery systems at Fisco, said: "This breakthrough marks the beginning of a new era for solid-state battery materials and manufacturing technology." He also said, 'We are addressing other barriers to solid-state battery commercialization , Such as battery performance under low temperature conditions.
Fisker said the battery will be on display at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January next year and is expected to be commercialized by 2023. The company is currently working with a potential non-automotive partner Partners to negotiate, it is possible as early as 2023 to commercialize the battery for this application.
In fact, solid-state batteries are not a whole new field of research, and scientists have been investigating the technology in the lab for years, but the product has not been used due to issues such as production costs and charge cycle durability.
In addition to Fisker, other companies and research institutes have devoted considerable attention to this area of research and development, for example, Japan's NEDO (Japan's New Energy Industrial Technology Development Organization) formulated its R & D plan as early as in 2008 Solid state lithium battery production, including solid lithium metal, solid state lithium sulfur and solid state lithium air battery, will be realized by 2030. In July this year, Japan Toyota made new progress in the patent of solid state battery and announced that it will launch all solid state Battery of the new electric car.VeneSwiss Volkswagen has also said that it plans to have the next generation of electric car batteries for more than 1,000 kilometers of solid state batteries, will be in volume production in 2025.

4. The United States, Japan and South Korea three patent offices jointly launched the Expanded CSP pilot program;
USPTO has entered into bilateral agreements with JPO and KIPO, respectively. With effect from November 1, 2017, the US-JP and US-KR have launched two expanded bilateral joint-stock programs (Expanded CSP), tentatively scheduled for 3 years. Those permitted to join the pilot scheme will have the opportunity to obtain the first substantive examination submission in a shorter period of time without paying any additional official fees.
The USPTO, JPO and KIPO announced that the three offices will launch the Expanded CSP (US-JP) and US-KR (Expanded CSPs) on November 1, 2017 tentatively for a period of three years. Those permitted to join the pilot scheme will have the opportunity to obtain the first action on the merits (FAOM) within a relatively short period without having to pay an official fee
The applicant shall submit the required letter of request to the USPTO and the designated foreign cooperation bureau (ie, JPO or KIPO). Upon receipt of the letter of request, the USPTO and the designated foreign cooperation bureau will examine whether the application meets the requirements and if it meets all requirements, , Will be 4 months time to prepare the search results, and according to the following diagram reveals the process of search and review:
Although the effect of similar prioritization will not be accelerated only after the FAOM was issued, the USPTO will be able to exchange the search results and preliminary examination opinions with JPO or KIPO at the early stage of examination, with the exception of individual patent offices The results of the review are expected to be more consistent and the patent rights thus obtained are expected to be more stable In addition, applicants may also be able to predict more accurately when an application case is to be put into trial for trial, grant a patent and decide on the next Take those actions.
As for the participation requirements, the three innings have different norms, the following simple excerpts of some of the items:
