The patent in question, No. 6,042,998, pertains to double patterning lithography technology. Five companies have already signed licensing deals with STC for use of its patents, including Toshiba, Samsung, and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing. STC is asking the court to declare that Intel is infringing on the patent and order the chip maker to pay damages to STC.”]
