Descriptiontext

Comet Plasma Control Technologies (Comet PCT), operating under the COMET Technologies brand, is a Swiss-founded subsidiary of the Comet Group specializing in RF power delivery systems and plasma control technologies for industrial manufacturing. Established in 1948 and headquartered in Flamatt, Switzerland, the company has more than 60 years of experience designing and manufacturing RF generators, impedance matching networks, and vacuum capacitors used in plasma-based production processes. Its product portfolio spans frequencies from 400 kHz to 170 MHz and power outputs from 600 W to 5 kW, anchored by the Synertia® RF Power Delivery Platform, which integrates generators, matching networks, and system-level control into a unified architecture for plasma process management. Supporting product families include the cito and cito Plus RF generators, custom and standard (AGS) matching networks, and the broadest selection of variable, fixed, trimmer, and motorized vacuum capacitors in the market (Li-Con, Dual-Con, Uni-Select, NAMi-Con, HAMi-Con, and others), plus RF power and control cables.

The company sells primarily to enterprise manufacturers in the semiconductor industry for plasma etching, deposition, and doping applications, with additional exposure to flat panel display manufacturing (TFT-LCD, OLED), battery cell production, and medical/industrial plasma applications. Its go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales through a global network of local sales contacts and technical support offices spanning at least eight locations across North America (USA), Asia Pacific (China, Taiwan), and EMEA (Switzerland), operating on a request-a-quote model with publicly undisclosed pricing across all product categories. Revenue is generated through capital equipment hardware sales of RF generators, matching networks, and vacuum capacitors, with implied aftermarket support via spare parts and RMA services.

The company maintains over 950 employees globally and operates an active research partnership with the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign focused on advanced plasma process research. A 2026 corporate restructuring renamed Comet Yxlon GmbH to Comet Technologies Germany GmbH, signaling a consolidation of corporate identity around the Comet Technologies brand.

The National Law ReviewNinth Circuit Reverses $40M Verdict Over DTSA Burden ErrorThe Ninth Circuit reversed a $40 million verdict and a permanent injunction in Comet Technologies USA, Inc. v. XP Power, LLC, 181 F.4th 988 (9th Cir. 2026), after the district court misapplied jury instructions on the "readily ascertainable" burden. The court held that under the DTSA, the plaintiff must prove non-ascertainability, whereas California's UTSA places that burden on the defendant. The case was remanded for a new trial.Law3609th Circ. Ruling Exposes A Flaw In Federal Trade Secrets LawThe U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit issued a ruling in Comet Technologies USA Inc. v. XP Power LLC that highlights discrepancies between the federal Defend Trade Secrets Act and California's Uniform Trade Secrets Act. The decision addresses specific legal definitions regarding trade secrets, exposing potential flaws in the current federal statutory framework. This ruling has implications for intellectual property litigation involving cross-jurisdictional trade secret claims.The National Law ReviewTrade Secret Dispute Sent Back to Trial by $40 Million Jury InstrThe US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit reversed a $40 million jury damages award and vacated a permanent injunction and attorneys' fee award in Comet Technologies v. XP Power, remanding the trade secret misappropriation case for a new trial. The appellate court found that the district court improperly instructed the jury by placing on XP Power the burden of proving that the alleged trade secrets were "readily ascertainable by proper means," when under the Defend Trade Secrets Act that burden belongs to the plaintiff, Comet. The Ninth Circuit held the error was not harmless because conflicting expert testimony on reverse-engineering and public sources made the burden allocation central to determining whether the information qualified as trade secrets.Law3609th Circ. Erases Comet's $40M Trade Secret VerdictA split Ninth Circuit panel overturned Comet Technologies USA's $40 million trade secret verdict against XP Power and ordered a new trial. The appellate court held in a precedential decision that the jury was wrongly instructed regarding the burden of proof for lawful discovery or reverse-engineering. The ruling means the case will return to the lower court for further proceedings.
