Applied Materials to Enter MOCVD Market Soon

According to a report, Applied Materials plans to enter MOCVD market as a new MOCVD equipment supplier as the company responds to soaring demand from consumers and OEMs for LED backlit TVs.

Applied Materials may in fact be looking to produce an HPVE and MOCVD combined system. The company was awarded $3.9 million from the DOE through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act to reduce the costs of LED manufacturing by improving manufacturing equipment and processes. A portion of this money, some estimate $2.4 million, will go towards producing a more cost effective MOCVD system for producing LED, and the final manufacturing is likely to be done in Singapore or Taiwan.
