patent (03)<br />An official document conferring exclusive privileges on an invention for a period of years. Patents create a formidable technological barrier to entry, establishing and maintaining MONOPOLY POWER. Si nce patents allow monopoly profits to accrue to their inventors, they are a major private incentive to research and development. Nonpatent-holders can onl y use patented technical knowledge by licence. Although the patent system may encourage inventors, it has been criticized on the grounds that all scientific knowledge should be a free good and that the considerable legal costs of registering and protecting a patent exclude the poor inventor from using the system.<br /><em>See also:</em> invention; product cycle
