“…Therefore, a patent with a larger number of claims has a higher chance of becoming a high-value patent. The more IPCs a patent has, the more technical fields it covers and the more it can be transposed and applied in multiple fields [23]. Lerner's research found that the technical field of a patent represents the importance of the technology and that the technical field of a patent is positively correlated with the quality of the patent.…”

Based on the fact that the granted amount of patents in Chinese universities have increased significantly, we took the invention patents applied by universities in Sichuan Province from 2001 to 2015 as a sample and adopted Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox proportional hazards model. We found significant differences in the survival time of invention patents in the three types of universities Based on this, we conducted an empirical study and comparative analysis on the factors influencing the survival time of the three types of universities. It was found that the number of citations and the number of patent families have different effects on the survival time of invention patents in the three types of universities; the examination time and the number of inventors have negative effects on the survival time of invention patents in the three types of universities; the number of claims, the number of IPCs and the number of forward citations have positive effects on the survival time of invention patents in the three types of universities. This paper can provide some reference for universities to cultivate high-value patents.

“…In this study, we investigate technological advancement within the context of the scale and scope of accumulated technological knowledge. Previous studies considered the scale and scope of accumulated technological knowledge as proxies for the degree and type of technological advancement [5,24,25]. Additionally, since we use forward citation counts as a proxy for the impact of innovation, we use TI data to calculate proxies for the degree and type of technological advancement.…”

“…Consequently, our emphasis is on literature that employs TI data to assess the degree and type of technological advancement of patents. Appio et al [5] utilized TI data as a proxy for a patent's knowledge feature in terms of the knowledge amount for analyzing the patent's value.…”

“…Appio et al [5] regressed proxy variables representing a patent's value on the number of TI, claims' length and number, number of backward and forward citations, renewal, and number of families. In this study, the proxy variables are whether an infringement lawsuit is filed and whether the family size is weighted by the gross domestic product of the states in the family [5]. Appio et al [5] showed that the number of TI negatively correlates with infringement lawsuits.…”

“…However, various and numerous arguments on the optimal strategy for maximizing the expected impact of innovations have been proposed in previous studies [3,5]. There is still a lack of an approach that considers both the degree and type of technological advancements simultaneously at the patent level.…”

Although the importance of technological advancement in facilitating successful transitions to alternative energy is well recognized, the study of technological advancement strategies has been elusive. This study aims to investigate the technological advancement strategies for inventing alternative energy technologies by using patent data. This study empirically examines relationships between forward citation counts and the results of invention activities such as the degree and type of technological advancement (diversification), as well as other bibliographic information about the patent. Specifically, this study considers both the degree and the type of technological advancement of the patents, taking into account the scale and scope of technological knowledge. Finally, the study confirms the heterogeneous relationships between innovation impact and technological advancement in each field of alternative energy. It was confirmed that the innovation impact of patents related to wind energy was more significantly associated with the degree of technological advancement than that of patents related to other fields of alternative energy. In the case of patents related to fuel cells and biofuel, diversification of technological advancement was associated with a higher innovation impact. In the case of solar and hydro energy, specialization of technological advancement was found to be related to a higher innovation impact.
