FOREPI President Dr. Fen-Ren Chien comments: “This is our company’s first AIX G5 HT system, allowing us to smoothly transfer our process recipes to a new reactor. Once this is proven we can look forward to the purchase of more systems for production. The reason why the AIXTRON system was chosen comes down to the all round excellent performance of our existing systems like the G4 and CRIUS. Hence we have a strong interest in acquiring LED high bay lighting recently launched products – such as the G5 and the CRIUS II. Following successful recipe transfer, FOREPI will exercise all the advantages that we can get from the G5 system, having already demonstrated high quality GaN deposition at very high growth rates and high pressure above 600 mbar resulting in superior GaN/InGaN uniformities."
