DUBLIN, July 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/qxtz3m/fdsoi_patent) has announced the addition of the "FD-SOI Patent Landscape" report to their offering.

This report provides a detailed picture of the patent landscape for Fully Depleted Transistors on Silicon-on-Insulator Substrate (planar FD-SOI and SOI FinFET). It identifies more than 30 patent holders of FD-SOI related intellectual property.

It provides in-depth analysis of key technology segments and key players including:

- Time evolution of patent publications and countries of patent filings.

- Current legal status of patents.

- Ranking of main patent applicants.

- Joint developments and IP collaboration network of main patent applicants.

- Segmentation by architecture (planar FD-SOI, SOI FinFET) and process level (transistor, device, circuit).

- Key patents.

- Granted patents near expiration.

- Relative strength of main companies IP portfolio.

- Matrix applicants / technology segments for more than 20 companies.

The FD-SOI IP profiles of 10 major companies is presented, with key patents, patented technologies, partnerships, and IP strength and strategy. The report also provides an extensive Excel database with all patents analyzed in the report with technology segmentation. This database allows multi-criteria searches: patent publication number, hyperlinks to the original documents, priority date, title, abstract, claims, patent assignees, technological segments, legal status for each member of the patent family.
