AIXTRON AG announced today a new order from an existing customer in China. The order is for two CRIUS production deposition systems in a 31x2 inch configuration. LED manufacturer Xi An ZoomView placed the order in the fourth quarter of 2009, and will use both reactors for GaN HB-LED production. The systems will be delivered over the second to third quarter period of 2010 with the local AIXTRON support team installing and commissioning the new reactors at the company’s new production facility.
Chief Technical Officer of Xi An ZoomView, Dr. Li PeiXian comments, “The primary reason we have selected the AIXTRON MOCVD systems is because of their good margin for further uniformity tuning. This is very important for high end HB LED production. Secondly, our technical partner XI DIAN University has been entirely satisfied with their AIXTRON SiC MOCVD system and its performance. The good productivity plus the responsive local process and engineering support convinced us that AIXTRON systems were the best choice for us.”
