AIXTRON AG today announced a new order for two CRIUS 31x2-inch configuration deposition systems from Yangzhou Zhongke Semiconductor Lighting Center Co. Ltd.
The company placed the order in the fourth quarter of 2009 and after delivery in the second quarter of 2010 they will be used for GaN high brightness LED production for streetlight and display backlighting applications. The local AIXTRON support team will commission the new reactors at the facility within the company’s research group, ISCAS, in China.
General Manager Dr. Wang GuoHong, comments, “Our reason for purchase was an outstanding need for capacity increase. Up to now our research group, ISCAS, has been using our first AIXTRON system and they are very satisfied with the system's all round performance. Now, however, we need a new capability that gives us high throughput but with lower cost and easy operation. We are convinced that we will get all these features and more from the world-class CRIUS MOCVD reactors supplied by AIXTRON. Backed up by their excellent service and support they will give us the complete package.”
