Academic patent dispute in Europe
A university patent (held by Switzerland's University of Neuchatel) has been invoked against the SunFab thin film solar technology of Applied Materials.
Oerlikon licensed the Neuchatel technology.
Query: If a "maker" licenses the academic technology, does that make the technology "non-troll"? Does the "maker" have to "make" according to the academic patent to render the technology non-troll?
For the record, Applied Materials Inc denies infringement.
