Jiangsu CANYANG to boost HB blue LED capacity with AIXTRON CRIUS II

Jiangsu CANYANG placed the order in the second quarter of 2011 and after delivery in the period between the second and fourth quarters of 2011, one of AIXTRON´s local support teams will install and commission the reactor in the company’s state-of-the-art production complex in China. All systems will be dedicated to the growth of high brightness blue LEDs.

FOREPI President Dr. Fen-Ren Chien, comments, “We are embarking on a whole new era of high volume blue LED production at Jiangsu CANYANG. To minimize risk and interruptions we have once again chosen AIXTRON equipment. The outstanding performance of our existing CRIUS and G4 systems as well as the excellent design concept of the Showerhead technology I am confident will give us the proven fastest time-to-market. While these will be Jiangsu CANYANG´s first CRIUS II systems, I am convinced that the new systems will demonstrate the expected results as well as easy production process handling and excellent compatibility. In fact, my technicians are very keen to quickly gain experience with the new generation system and smoothly transfer all CRIUS recipes over to the CRIUS II systems.”

Jiangsu CANYANG Optoelectronics LTD is a high-tech enterprise which is specialized in R&D and industrialization of LED epitaxial wafers and chips. The company´s core business covers the production of Ultra-High Brightness InGaN LED epitaxial wafers and LED chips and its capacity is expected to reach 50 sets of MOCVD equipment within the next two years. In April 2010, the company had placed a multiple tool order for AIXTRON Planetary and Showerhead HB-GaN LED MOCVD systems.
