Nov 3 (Reuters) - Samsung Electronics ( SSNLF ) owes

patent owner Pictiva Displays $191.4 million in damages for

infringing two U.S. patents covering organic light-emitting

diode technology, a jury in Texas federal court said on Monday.

Pictiva convinced the jury that a wide range of Samsung

devices violate Pictiva's patent rights in technology for

enhancing the resolution, brightness and power efficiency of

OLED displays.

Pictiva Managing Director Angela Quinlan said in a statement

the verdict "validates the strength of the Pictiva intellectual

property."

Samsung Electronics ( SSNLF ) said it would appeal.

"We intend to appeal the verdict related to the two

patents. We have already filed a petition to invalidate the

relevant patents, which is currently under review by the United

States Patent and Trademark Office," the company said in a

statement.

The verdict is one of several recent large awards won by

patent owners suing Samsung in the same Marshall, Texas, court

over technology in its devices.

Ireland-based Pictiva, a subsidiary of patent licensing

company Key Patent Innovations, owns hundreds of patents

covering OLED technology invented by photonics company OSRAM

in the early 2000s.

Pictiva alleged in its 2023 lawsuit that Samsung's Galaxy

smartphones, televisions, computers, wearables and other

products incorporate Pictiva's technology for improving OLED

displays. Samsung denied the allegations and argued the patents

were invalid.
