Plessey Semiconductor Expands GaN-on-Silicon LED Production using AIXTRON Technology

Plessey Semiconductors Ltd today announced that it has purchased another CRIUS II-XL MOCVD system for use in the manufacture of Gallium Nitride LEDs on Silicon wafers (GaN-on-Si). The company is further expanding its production capacities in this area. The Close Coupled Showerhead system recently delivered with a 7x6-inch configuration will supplement an existing production system from AIXTRON.

Dr. Keith Strickland, Chief Technology Officer for Plessey said, "Our MaGICTM (Manufactured on GaN-on-Si I / C) led outdoor lighting wholesale in particular has been successfully launched this past year. As a result, we now plan to step up our production. To this end, and given our positive experience with AIXTRON's CRIUS II-XL system, we have purchased a further system of this type and are thus maintaining our successful cooperation with AIXTRON. "

"CRIUS II-XL convinced us with its high throughput rates and low operating costs for GaN layer growth on 6-inch silicon substrates. Moreover, AIXTRON is actively supporting us in further optimizing our production processes", added Mike Snaith, Operations Director for Plessey .

"We are delighted by the renewed order from Plessey", commented Dr. Frank Schulte, Vice President AIXTRON Europe. "It offers further confirmation that Gallium Nitride-on-Silicon, a high-performance, efficient epitaxy process, is becoming increasingly established as an alternative to growth on sapphire. The associated potential production cost savings will further promote the establishment of LED as a light source. AIXTRON is well prepared for this market development and will also be supporting Plessey in further optimizing its GaN-on-Silicon technology. "

Plessey Semiconductors Ltd. Is a LED commercial lighting wholesale in the development and manufacture of semiconductor products used in lighting, sensing, measurement and control applications. Plessey's products are found in a wide range of markets, including communications, medical technology, aerospace and space travel, as well as in the defense and automotive industry.
