Genesis Photonics to Increase HB-LED Production

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
PLAINVIEW, N.Y., June 16, 2011 — Veeco Instruments Inc. announced that Genesis Photonics Inc. has placed a multiunit order for its recently released TurboDisc MaxBright multireactor metallorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) system.

The Taiwan-based Genesis Photonics will use the systems to increase capacity for the production of high-brightness LEDs (HB LEDs) being driven by applications in backlighting, lighting, displays and automotive.

The MaxBright system is available in a two- or four-reactor cluster architecture and delivers up to a 500 percent productivity gain and a 2.5x increase in footprint efficiency over the industry-leading K465i system, Veeco said.

Genesis Photonics provides GaN-based LED epi-wafers, and LED chips for lighting, display, backlighting, auto lamp, scientific, industrial and research applications.

Veeco makes equipment to develop and manufacture LEDs, solar panels, hard disk drives and other devices.

Glossary
backlighting
The forming of a clear silhouette of an object by placing a light source behind it. Used in machine vision when surface features of an object are not important.
light-emitting diode
An LED, or light emitting diode, is a semiconductor device that emits light when an electric current passes through it. LEDs are widely used in various applications due to their energy efficiency, compact size, and long operational life. The technology behind LEDs is based on the phenomenon of electroluminescence. Key characteristics and features of LEDs include: Electroluminescence: The process by which LEDs emit light is called electroluminescence. It involves the recombination of...
