!!! Press Release !!! Samsung Electro Mechanics purchases AIXTRON MOCVD System The sale of another mass production MOCVD system for UHB-LED and visible laser production in Korea has gone to the world´s leading manufacturer of these machines, AIXTRON AG. Samsung Electro Mechanics (SEM) has placed an order with AIXTRON for the supply of an AIX 2400 Planetary Reactor® system. SEM is a leading manufacturer of optoelectronics in Korea and this is the second production system the company has purchased from AIXTRON. This contract again confirms the AIX 2000/2400 as the world standard production tool for optoelectronic applications. The two-flow horizontal reactor permits the handling of up to 5 x 4", 8 x 3" or 15 x 2" wafers. The reactor has a laminar flow design without turbulence for precise control of the material composition, p- and n-doping and the achievement of ultra sharp interfaces. Wafer rotation is provided by the patented Gas Foil Rotation®. The machines are manufactured according to the highest quality standards, including AIXTRON´s ISO 9001 certification, the European CE as well as high German engineering standards. AIXTRON offers a wide range of epitaxial systems for MOVPE, VPE and LPE from R & D- oriented systems up to large-scale Planetary Reactor® production systems for up to 95 x 2" wafers. The company has installed over 200 systems worldwide, provides an extensive service and support network for maintenance and upgrading and is represented in 18 countries. Among AIXTRON's list of industrial clients are names such as Alcatel, AT&T, EPI, Hewlett Packard, Honeywell, IBM, Motorola, NEC, Philips, Rockwell, Samsung, Siemens and numerous Japanese corporations. AIXTRON systems have also been installed in many of the world's most renowned research institutes including JPL-CALTEC, Sandia Nat. Lab., Fraunhofer Institute, CNET and CNRS. AIXTRON is very active in advancing MOCVD technology through collaborations and joint R & D projects with major partners worldwide. For further information please contact:
