`Apple’s Construction is Ambiguous
`
`• “Image plane” has no universal and unambiguous meaning.
`
`• Unclear if “image plane” means:
`(1) the theoretical, mathematically calculated “paraxial image plane,”
`known as the “ideal image plane”; or
`(2) the physical surface on which image data is captured, or “actual image
`plane” (equivalent to Corephotonics’ proposed construction)

`The Experts Agree On How to Measure TTL
`
`Dr. Duncan T. Moore

`
`Dr. Moore explained, “total track length” is
`measured to the actual, physical surface on
`which image data is captured, which may not
`coincide with the theoretical paraxial image
`plane.

`The Experts Agree On How to Measure TTL
`
`Dr. Jose Sasian
`Expert for Petitioner
`
`Q. So looking at the lens assembly shown on -- in Figure 1A of the
`appendix to your '032 patent declaration, how would you compute
`the TTL of this lens assembly?
`
`THE WITNESS: . . . So the program . . . will tell you what the total
`length is. . . . And the program will add all those distances along the
`optical axis and will come up with the TTL distance.

`The Experts Agree On How to Measure TTL
`
`Dr. Sasian explained that Zemax calculates
`TTL by summing the numbers in the column
`named “thickness.”
`
`Dr. Jose Sasian
`Expert for Petitioner
`
`I see. So the value towards the
`Q.
`bottom right of
`the screen labeled
`"TOTR" and equal to 4.489 is the TTL
`that Zemax calculated; is that right?
`
`A. Yes.
`
`Q. And it did that by adding up the
`numbers -- all of the numbers in the
`column named "Thickness"; is that right?
`
`A. Yes.

`
`• The ‘568 patent measures “TTL”
`to the electronic sensor (i.e., the
`actual image plane), not to the
`paraxial image plane.
`

`of distances from the object-side
`of the first lens to the electronic
`sensor / actual image plane.

`

`submitted by Apple as prior art in this IPR.

`“Total track length (TTL)”
`Corephotonics’ Construction
`“the length on an optical axis

`
`Apple’s Construction
`“the length of the optical axis spacing
`between the object-side surface of
`the first lens element and the image
`plane”
`
`•
`
`•
`
`If Apple’s proposal measures to the paraxial image plane, it is unsupported by the
`intrinsic or extrinsic evidence.
`If Apple’s proposal measures to the actual image plane (i.e., electronic sensor), there is
`no practical difference between the parties’ constructions.

`“the length of the optical axis spacing between the object-side surface of

`
`• The intrinsic and extrinsic evidence both support the Board’s potential construction.
`• The Board’s potential construction lacks the ambiguity posed by the term “image
`plane” in Apple’s proposed construction.

`

`Instituted Ground 1:
`Anticipation of Claims 1 and 13 by Ogino
`No Express Disclosure of Lens Assemblies With CG Removed
`• The relevant language from
`Ogino is suggestive and not
`specific to Example 6.
`• All embodiments, including
`Example 6, are described and
`illustrated in the Figures as
`including a CG element.
`
`“Alternatively, an effect similar to the optical
`member CG may be given to the fifth lens L5 or
`the like by applying a coating to the fifth lens L5
`or the like without using the optical member CG.
`Thereby, it is possible to reduce the number of
`components, and to reduce the total length.”

`TL is Not Equal to TTL
`
`“TL” is “total lens length” defined as a value using an “air-
`converted value.” (Ogino, Ex. 1005, at 14:50-53 (cited at
`POR, at 21))
`
`“TTL” is “total track length” defined as “total track length
`on an optical axis between the object-side surface of the
`first lens element and the electronic sensor”. (‘568 patent,
`Ex. 1001, at 2:1-4)

`TL is Not Equal to TTL
`
`• The “TL” of Example 6, 4.387 mm, is the
`measurement of distance from the first
`lens to a theoretical back focal length
`using an “air converted value.”

`distance from the first lens to the

`4.489 mm.

`The Petition Failed to Show Motivation to Remove the Cover Glass
`
`The Petition fails to explain why a POSITA would
`remove the cover glass in view of:
`
`•
`
`Particle contamination leading to decreased
`manufacturability and image quality loss
`
`• Higher defect rates in production for camera
`modules
`
`• No appropriate substitute for infrared light
`filtration

`

`The Petition Failed to Show Motivation to Remove the Cover Glass
`
`This structure has two principal drawbacks. The
`first is that the cost of assembly is incremental
`for each die packaged. A second limitation is
`that the imager die is totally unprotected until
`the final assembly operation when the lens
`turret is attached. It is therefore not surprising
`that more than 90% of defects in camera
`modules are related to contamination by
`particles.

`The Petition Failed to Show Motivation to Remove the Cover Glass
`
`“Packaging of image sensors at the wafer level is
`becoming essential as resolutions increase and pixel
`dimensions decrease. While this is technically
`tractable and economically favourable a packaged
`image sensor must have a cover glass as an
`additional component in the optical train.”

`
`106. As a factual matter, a POSITA in 2013 would have been extremely unlikely to design a small camera
`module with a lens assembly and an electronic sensor that was unprotected by a cover glass. The same
`would be true today. I am not aware of any commercially available, small-form factor device (such as the
`smartphones and tablets referenced in both Ogino and the ’568 patent) that utilizes a camera module
`without a cover glass. ...
`
`108. The industry’s preferred reliance on electronic sensors with protective cover glass (in 2013 and today)
`is not merely a because it is easier to make, store, and sell sensors protected by cover glass layers—it is also
`because “glass-less” sensors would continue to be vulnerable even after they are installed into a camera
`module with a lens assembly. In the absence of a cover glass, tiny particles, like microscopic dust or human
`skin cells, that ingress and contaminate the surface of the electronic sensor would degrade image quality to
`unacceptable levels. See also Ex. 2019, at 3 ( “more than 90% of defects in camera modules are related to
`contamination by particles.”).

`The Petition concedes that Ogino does
`not teach any specific center-to-edge
`thickness.
`The Petition’s only support for its
`obviousness argument [1.8] is the
`Handbook of Optics text, which Apple
`applies inconsistently and selectively to
`arrive at the challenged claims.
`The Handbook of Optics is not part of

`Apple’s Obviousness Argument Requires Lens Diameter No More than 4.8%
`Greater than Aperture Diameter
`
`“To maintain such a center-to-edge thickness ratio for
`ease of manufacturability, the first lens element could
`have a lens diameter of up to 1.75825 mm which is a
`4.8% increase over the diameter of the entrance pupil.
`Ex.1003, pp.47-48. In other words, adding up to 4.8% to
`the minimal diameter of Ogino’s Example 6 first lens
`element (as discussed above) would yield a diameter of
`1.7578 mm. Ex.1003, p.48. This diameter would yield an
`edge thickness of L1e=–0.04047–0.3307+0.557=0.1858
`mm and an L11/L1e ratio of 2.998. Ex.1003, p.48.”
