Research driven by passion

At AIXTRON, specialist scientists and engineers are researching the next-generation technology trends on a daily basis. Spurred on by the idea of turning ideas into marketable products, they are perfecting existing products and developing innovative materials in tandem with our research partners.

We cooperate with outstanding universities, research centres and industrial partners around the world to deliver complex projects at national and international level. For instance, through intensive engagement with renowned scientists, we are achieving new results in nanotechnology and constantly researching new materials and technologies.

At our application laboratories, we are working on the applications of the future, from LEDs for displays, lasers and detectors for 3D sensor technology, to power electronics for applications used in electric vehicles or high-frequency transistors for 5G networks.

With our research and development, we are paving the way for our customers in the semiconductor industry to be successful with technologies of the future and tap into tomorrow’s markets. Our strength comes from our many years of expertise in highly complex epitaxy processes. We are constantly optimising the status quo, thus improving the performance of electronic and optoelectronic components even more.
