Portfolio overview
Mattson Technology, Inc. has been granted 140 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Mattson Technology, Inc. at rank #2,761 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 31 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01L (SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES NOT COVERED BY CLASS H10). As a US Corporation, Mattson Technology, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Mattson sits between Electricite DE France (140 patents, rank #2,757) and Bar-ilan University (139 patents, rank #2,765) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 55.9/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 112 grants, compared with 28 in the 2015–2019 window, a +300% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Mattson Technology, Inc.'s 18.2 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 31 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Mattson Technology, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
