SEOUL, South Korea–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Nitek, Inc. (“Nitek”), a pioneering American company in UV LEDs, has announced that it filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Photon Wave Co., Ltd. (“Photon Wave”), a Korean UV LED manufacturer in the Eastern District of Texas.
In the complaint, Nitek asserts that LED products of ams OSRAM, a German LED company, use Photon Wave’s infringing LEDs.
Nitek also contends that Photon Wave has failed to cease selling infringing products, even after getting continuous warning notices of the patent infringement, and therefore Nitek is not only seeking a permanent injunction against the sales of infringing products but also pursuing 3 times damages for willful patent infringement.
Nitek has previously successfully won its patent lawsuit against another international LED maker, and continues its enforcement against other infringers. Sensor Electronic Technology, Inc. (“SETi”), an affiliate of Nitek, has also obtained a permanent injunction for patent infringement against Bolb, Inc., a UV LED company co-founded by former SETi employees. Critically, the effects of this permanent injunction order also apply to officers and employees of Bolb, Inc.
