Company patents
SFC CO., LTD.
SFC CO., LTD. demonstrates a surprising dual focus, with its largest patent share in Organic Electronics (OLED) at 76.7% of its portfolio, alongside a significant and growing interest in pharma_biotech, particularly in Heterocyclic Compounds (Pharma), which saw a 55.6% YoY growth in 2025. While its core Organic Electronics (OLED) and Functional Materials (LCD, Lubricants) categories experienced declines in 2025 and so far in 2026, the company completely ceased patenting in Specialty Semiconductor Devices (Legacy) after 2023, indicating a clear shift away from that area.

Development and optimization of organic chemical compounds and their structures, including guest-host systems and metal complexes, used within the emission layer to achieve specific light emission characteristics such as color, efficiency, and operational lifetime.
Synthesis and application of organic compounds designed to impart specific functionalities in material science, such as photosensitivity or charge transport, for electronic or optical devices.
Methods and compositions for identifying, quantifying, or characterizing specific biological molecules (e.g., nucleic acids, proteins, metabolites, antibodies) or microbial species, often for diagnostic, prognostic, or quality control applications.
Assays leveraging CRISPR-Cas systems (e.g., Cas12, Cas13) for highly specific and sensitive detection of target nucleic acids, often involving collateral cleavage activity or reporter molecules.
Methods and reagents designed to improve the specificity, efficiency, or yield of nucleic acid capture, ligation, amplification, or library preparation steps, particularly for sequencing applications or quantitative analysis.
Techniques and structural designs for fabricating the physical layers of an OLED display, including material deposition, patterning, and methods to protect the active organic layers from environmental degradation like moisture and oxygen.
Components and techniques aimed at improving the visual quality of OLED displays, such as color accuracy, contrast, brightness uniformity, and reducing reflections or glare through optical layers and coatings.
Identification and measurement of specific nucleic acid sequences (DNA, RNA), their expression levels, or epigenetic modifications (e.g., methylation) as indicators for disease presence, progression, risk, or treatment response.
