Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 220 / Thursday, November 14, 2024 / Notices 90053 

invalidity finding of the ’294 patent; (3) 

whether the only asserted claim of the 

’508 patent, claim 1, is limited to using 

a single mask to etch both the gate 

contact and doped GaN layer based on 

the ’508 patent’s description of the 

‘‘present invention,’’ as well as whether 

the claim steps must be performed in 

the order recited; and (4) whether EPC’s 

‘‘total operating expenditures’’ 

identified on page 129 of the ID 

includes foreign manufacturing 

expenses for the domestic industry 

products. Id. 

On September 23, 2023, the parties 

filed initial submissions in response to 

the Commission’s request for briefing. 

On September 30, 2023, the parties filed 

reply submissions. 

Upon review of the parties’ 

submissions, the ID, the RD, evidence of 

record, and public interest filings, the 

Commission has determined that 

Respondents violated section 337 by 

reason of importation and sale of 

articles that infringe asserted claims 2 

and 3 of the ’294 patent and to issue 

remedial orders. The Commission has 

determined to clarify the ID’s statements 

on jurisdiction and standing as noted in 

the accompanying Commission 

Opinion. The Commission has 

determined to adopt OUII’s construction 

of the claim term ‘‘compensated GaN 

layer’’ recited in claim 1 of the ’294 

patent as its plain and ordinary meaning 

and, as explained in the Commission 

opinion, finds that adoption of OUII’s 

construction does not alter the ID’s 

findings on infringement, invalidity, 

and technical prong of domestic 

industry, which the Commission 

affirms. For the ’508 patent, the 

Commission affirms the ID’s finding of 

no violation for the reasons provided in 

the ID. 

For remedy, the Commission has 

determined to issue a limited exclusion 

order prohibiting further importation of 

infringing products and cease and desist 

orders against Respondents. The 

Commission has determined that the 

public interest factors do not counsel 

against issuing remedial orders. The 

Commission has determined that a bond 

in the amount of five percent (5%) of 

entered value for covered articles is 

required for covered products imported 

or sold during the period of Presidential 

review. 

The Commission vote for this 

determination took place on November 

7, 2024. 

The authority for the Commission’s 

determination is contained in section 

337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and in Part 

210 of the Commission’s Rules of 

Practice and Procedure (19 CFR part 

210). 

By order of the Commission.
