AIXTRON AG announced today that in the third quarter 2009 SemiLEDs placed an order for one Close Coupled Showerhead CRIUS MOCVD system in a 7x4 inch configuration. The system will be delivered in the fourth quarter 2009 and installed at the company's state of the art 4-inch LED chip line at its production facility in Taiwan.
Dr. Chuong Tran, President and COO of SemiLEDs, comments, "We have chosen the AIXTRON CRIUS system equipped with the Dynamic Reactor Height Adjustment feature, which facilitates growth at elevated pressures, providing an advantage for our proprietary MVP structure.
