GE, Consumer Lighting File Patent Suit Against Cree

GE, Consumer Lighting File Patent Suit Against Cree

General Electric and its former lighting subsidiary Consumer Lighting, LLC have filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Cree, claiming Cree is using a technology it patented on Cree products.  The lawsuit comes at an interesting time. As “lightED” has reported, Cree announced on March 18 that it will sell its lighting business to IDEAL Industries. The sale is scheduled to be completed by the fourth quarter of this year.

The lawsuit involved the technology used for GE’s TriGain LED technology.  GE described it in the lawsuit as, “this technology, which is protected by U.S. Patent No. 7,497,973 and U.S. Patent No. 9,680,067 (among others), addresses the longstanding problem of how to deliver improved LED color rendering at the higher efficiencies required by commercial customers. Color rendering—i.e., how a light source makes the color of an object appear to human eyes—is important to many commercial and industrial customers, because more accurate color rendering can make food look fresher or clothes more attractive (thus driving increased sales) or enable precise mixing and selection of paint colors in a factory or enhance visual inspection of a finished product. Prior to TriGainTM, high levels of color rendering generally came at the cost of lower efficiency (i.e., lower light output per energy input), meaning that fixtures did not provide enough light for commercial purposes and/or were too expensive for commercial applications. TriGainTM LED technology also provides advantages for LED-backlit display applications, including greater overall color, enhanced red enunciation, more unique red generation, and better general contrast for LED-backlit displays.”

The lawsuit claims GE worked to create the TriGain technology after more than 10 years of research. It goes on to say that it believe Cree will continue to use the patent, “causing immediate and irreparable harm to Plaintiffs unless this Court enjoins and restrains Defendant’s activities. There are inadequate remedies available at law to compensate for this harm.” 

The suit also claims Cree knows it is using the patent, and it continued use is “obvious”.

GE is asking for a jury trail, and that damages should be determined at trial, but should not be limited to all lost profits and royalties.

Cree has not responded to the lawsuit, and there is no indication of what it will mean to the pending sale to IDEAL.

FACTUAL BACKGROUND

I. GENERAL ELECTRIC AND CURRENT’S PIONEERING WORK ON ILLUMINATION

10. General Electric is a global digital industrial company that leads new paradigms in additive manufacturing, materials science, and data analytics.

11. Along with its former subsidiary Current, General Electric has worked at the forefront of innovation in the lighting and illumination field for over 125 years. Building on the first carbon filament light bulb invented by Thomas Edison in 1879 (as shown in the image below), General Electric pioneered the machine-blown light bulb (1892), the ductile tungsten filament used in modern incandescent bulbs (1909), the fluorescent lamp (1938), the halogen lamp (1959), and the first LED to emit visible light (1962).

Case 1:19-cv-00394-CCE-JLW Document 1 Filed 04/11/19 Page 3 of 18

page4image1952284512

12. General Electric bulbs have illuminated numerous historic settings and events including the first commercial lighting on a steamship (1890), the first large-scale application of electronic lighting controls, installed for the Chicago Civic Opera (1929), the first night game in major league baseball (1935), and the first lighting of Niagara Falls (1979). Indeed, the shape of the incandescent light bulb—which still resembles

Case 1:19-cv-00394-CCE-JLW Document 1 Filed 04/11/19 Page 4 of 18

Thomas Edison’s original design—has become a cultural symbol for innovation and bright ideas.

13. Prior to its sale of Current, General Electric operated its commercial and industrial lighting business through Current. Current is a leading provider of energy efficiency and digital productivity solutions for commercial facilities and offices, retail stores, and industrial sites. Its commercial technology portfolio includes LED (light emitting diode) and traditional lighting solutions, plus a wide variety of connected sensors, controls and software.

14. General Electric’s consumer lighting business is conducted by its Consumer Lighting subsidiary. Consumer Lighting focuses on residential and consumer applications, such as residential light bulbs, and seeks to drive innovation and growth in LED and connected home technology in the consumer market.

15. General Electric itself licenses lighting technology, including LED

technology, for use in display applications such as those used in smartphones, laptop

computers, and televisions.

II. THE TECHNOLOGY AND PATENTS-IN-SUIT

16. In recent years, Current and General Electric have had particular success with their patented TriGainTM LED technology. This technology, which is protected by U.S. Patent No. 7,497,973 and U.S. Patent No. 9,680,067 (among others), addresses the longstanding problem of how to deliver improved LED color rendering at the higher efficiencies required by commercial customers. Color rendering—i.e., how a light source

5

Case 1:19-cv-00394-CCE-JLW Document 1 Filed 04/11/19 Page 5 of 18

makes the color of an object appear to human eyes—is important to many commercial and industrial customers, because more accurate color rendering can make food look fresher or clothes more attractive (thus driving increased sales) or enable precise mixing and selection of paint colors in a factory or enhance visual inspection of a finished product. Prior to TriGainTM, high levels of color rendering generally came at the cost of lower efficiency (i.e., lower light output per energy input), meaning that fixtures did not provide enough light for commercial purposes and/or were too expensive for commercial applications. TriGainTM LED technology also provides advantages for LED-backlit display applications, including greater overall color, enhanced red enunciation, more unique red generation, and better general contrast for LED-backlit displays.

17. First introduced to the commercial market in 2015, TriGainTM represents the culmination of over ten years of research. Since their release, sales of TriGainTMfixtures have grown at a rapid pace, representing an exponentially increasing portion of Plaintiffs’ revenue for the relevant market segment. Sales of LEDs using TriGainTMtechnology for display purposes under license from General Electric have shown equally impressive growth.

18. U.S. Patent No. 7,497,973 (the “’973 Patent”), entitled “Red Line Emitting Phosphor Materials For Use In LED Applications,” duly and legally issued on March 3, 2009, from a patent application filed on February 28, 2006. The ’973 Patent names Emil Vergilov Radkov, Ljudmil Slavchev Grigorov, Anant Achyut Setlur, and Alok Mani Srivastava as inventors.

Case 1:19-cv-00394-CCE-JLW Document 1 Filed 04/11/19 Page 12 of 18

encouraging others to directly infringe by offering to sell, selling, and/or using in the United States, and/or importing into the United States, Defendant’s eTone PFS LED Packages, including CMA1516-0000-00PN0U0A30G.

71. On information and belief, with knowledge and intent, or with willful blindness, Defendant is encouraging and facilitating infringement by others. For example, Defendant is selling or otherwise providing Defendant’s eTone PFS LED Packages to distributors knowing that these distributors intend to import, offer to sell, and/or sell Defendant’s eTone PFS LED Packages in the United States, for use by others. Defendant advertises its distributors under the “Where to Buy” section of Defendant’s website for purchases being made in the United States. Exhibit 3, an excerpt from “Where to Buy” section, available at https://www.cree.com/led-components/where-to- buy (last visited Apr. 11, 2019).

72. On information and belief, Defendant has had knowledge of, or has been willfully blind toward, the ’973 Patent since at least May 1, 2015, and Defendant has known that Defendant’s eTone PFS LED Packages would infringe the patent from at least the time it began making, using, selling, offering to sell, and/or importing them.

73. For example, Defendant incorporated by reference the ’973 Patent into the written description of its U.S. Patent No. 9,530,944, filed on May 1, 2015. Further, Defendant cited the ’973 Patent to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in multiple information disclosure statements, including one filed on June 16, 2016 for U.S. Patent Application No. 15/184,104, a second filed on October 26, 2015 for U.S. Patent

13

Case 1:19-cv-00394-CCE-JLW Document 1 Filed 04/11/19 Page 13 of 18

Application No. 14/298,327, and a third filed on December 6, 2017 for U.S. Patent Application No. 15/832,848.

74. Furthermore, the existence of the ’973 Patent is readily apparent from Plaintiffs’ publicly available materials. For example, a 2015 General Electric brochure entitled “TriGainTM Phosphor: Simple, High-Performance Red for LED Backlighting” is publicly available online, and indicates that the ’973 Patent, as well as others, “are relevant to the use of a PFS phosphor in an LED package and are available for license from GE.” The brochure is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.

75. As a direct and proximate result of Defendant’s acts of infringing the ’973 Patent, Plaintiffs have suffered injury and monetary damages for which Plaintiffs are entitled to relief in the form of damages for lost profits and in no event less than a reasonable royalty to compensate for Defendant’s infringement.

76. Plaintiffs have complied with 35 U.S.C. § 287 at least as of the filing of this Complaint.

77. Defendant will continue to directly infringe one or more claims of the ’973 Patent, causing immediate and irreparable harm to Plaintiffs unless this Court enjoins and restrains Defendant’s activities. There are inadequate remedies available at law to compensate for this harm.

78. On information and belief, Defendant’s past and ongoing infringement of the ’973 Patent has been and continues to be with knowledge of the ’973 Patent and Defendant’s infringement thereof, or has been and continues to be so obvious that it

14

Case 1:19-cv-00394-CCE-JLW Document 1 Filed 04/11/19 Page 14 of 18

should have been known to Defendant. Defendant’s intentional, knowing, willful, and deliberate infringement of the ’973 Patent, in conscious disregard of Plaintiff’s rights, makes this case exceptional within the meaning of 35 U.S.C. § 285 and justifies treble damages pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 284.

COUNT II
(Infringement of U.S. Patent No. 9,680,067)

79. The information and allegations set forth in all previous paragraphs are incorporated as though fully set forth herein.

80. On information and belief, Defendant has infringed the ’067 Patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(a) by using, selling, and/or offering for sale within the United States, and/or importing into the United States, Defendant’s eTone PFS LED Packages.

81. On information and belief, Defendant is knowingly and intentionally inducing infringement of the ’067 Patent in violation of 35 U.S.C. § 271(b) by actively encouraging others to directly infringe by offering to sell, selling, and/or using in the United States, and/or importing into the United States, Defendant’s eTone PFS LED Packages.

82. On information and belief, with knowledge and intent, or with willful blindness, Defendant is encouraging and facilitating infringement by others. For example, Defendant is selling Defendant’s eTone PFS LED Packages to distributors knowing that these distributors intend to import, offer to sell, and/or sell Defendant’s eTone PFS LED Packages in the United States, for use by others. Defendant advertises its distributors under the “Where to Buy” section of Defendant’s website for purchases

being made in the United States. Exhibit 3, an excerpt from “Where to Buy” section,available at https://www.cree.com/led-components/where-to-buy (last visited Apr. 11, 2019).

83. On information and belief, Defendant has had knowledge of the ’067 Patent since at least the filing of this Complaint, and has known that Defendant’s eTone PFS LED Packages infringe the patent since at least that time.

84. As a direct and proximate result of Defendant’s acts of infringing the ’067 Patent, Plaintiffs have suffered injury and monetary damages for which Plaintiffs are entitled to relief in the form of damages for lost profits and in no event less than a reasonable royalty to compensate for Defendant’s infringement.

85. Defendant will continue to directly infringe one or more claims of the ’067 Patent, causing immediate and irreparable harm to Plaintiffs unless this Court enjoins and restrains Defendant’s activities. There are inadequate remedies available at law to compensate for this harm.

86. Plaintiffs have complied with 35 U.S.C. § 287 at least as of the filing of this Complaint.
