Centurion Patentors as of June 24, 2025
Welcome to June 24, 2025. This week, we aim to celebrate the centurion patentors who have reached noteworthy milestones in their fields.
Seyedkianoush Hosseini
Systems Engineer, 6G R&D, at Qualcomm.
Patent №: 12342409 – Sidelink discontinuous reception timer operations.
Wireless communication involves a Tx UE sending a sidelink transmission during a DRX on-duration and activating a DRX timer per source-destination ID pair based on the DRX configuration.
Patent №: 12342357 – Bandwidth parts for a groupcast sidelink network. Wireless communication involves a UE receiving config info to set up a sidelink channel with multiple bandwidth parts for groupcast communication, enabling data transmission or reception across those parts.
Bor Z Jang
Prof. Bor Jang is a Taiwanese-American materials scientist and entrepreneur. A pioneer in graphene technology. He co-founded Angstron Materials and leads Global Graphene Group, advancing next-gen batteries and materials.
A phosphorus-based anode for lithium or sodium ion batteries is provided, featuring a core of phosphorus materials or metal phosphides (0.5 nm–10 μm) and a shell of conductive network polymer that encapsulates the core to enhance electron/ion transport.
Zhaohua Lu
Senior Engineer with ZTE Corporation in the field of wireless communications.
Zhaohua Lu received a Ph.D. degree from Tianjin University, Tianjin, China, in 2006.
An intelligent metasurface system determines channel and beam info, optimizes a control parameter in a target function, sets target states for electromagnetic units, and adjusts each unit accordingly for dynamic beam manipulation.
Rifat Ata Mustafa Hikmet
Principal Scientist at Philips Research.
Patent №: 12337527 – FDM printed luminaires with enhanced shiny appearance.
A 3D printing method uses core-shell filament, where the core holds reflective or colored additives and the shell is light-transmissive with specular particles, creating layers with distinct optical properties.
Patent №: 12337525 – Power coated FDM printed item, related manufacturing method and apparatus. A 3D printing method includes printing a thermoplastic material to form an item, then applying a powder coating to its surface during a coating stage; the invention also covers the resulting item and the apparatus used.
Ronald S Karr
Director at Pure Storage.
Patent №: 12340110 – Replicating data in a storage system operating in a reduced power mode.
A storage system enters reduced power mode, detects the need for data replication, and performs replication using a selected communication mechanism optimized for low-power operation.
Patent №: 12340107 – Deduplication selection and optimization. A deduplication system compares performance metrics for retrieving a nearby stored data block vs. its hash and chooses the faster option to optimize data retrieval.
