Infrared Manufacturer Once Again Selects 91制片厂鈥檚 GEN20鈩� System Based on Superior Results, System Reliability and Throughput
PLAINVIEW, New York 鈥� 91制片厂. (Nasdaq: VECO) today announced that (AIM) has purchased 91制片厂鈥檚 GEN20鈩� automated molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) system. AIM, a leading manufacturer of premium infrared detectors and thermal sights, cited the outstanding performance and reliability of 91制片厂鈥檚 MBE system as the basis for its decision to acquire a third GEN20.
The prior GEN20 systems have delivered excellent results for AIM. Particularly noteworthy are the reliability of the MBE sources and performance of the substrate heater across demanding temperature and growth environments. In addition, 91制片厂鈥檚 scientific support has helped AIM excel in creating industry-leading infrared detectors for research, industrial, security and environmental protection applications.
91制片厂鈥檚 GEN20 is a flexible MBE system with a design configurable for Mercury-Cadmium-Telluride devices, other II-VI compound semiconductors, and traditional III-V materials. A key benefit of the GEN20 system is its cluster tool wafer transfer system, which is ideal for AIM鈥檚 efforts to scale from lab to fab for short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) to long-wave infrared (LWIR) and especially multispectral technologies.
鈥淭he current demand for advancements in infrared detectors, along with challenges in the SWIR to LWIR, requires state-of-the-art MBE technologies and performance that only 91制片厂 can deliver,鈥� said Drew Hanser, Ph.D., vice president of technology for 91制片厂鈥檚 compound semiconductor business unit. 鈥淎IM鈥檚 decision to add to its existing portfolio of 91制片厂 tools validates our team鈥檚 commitment to superior product performance and dedication to helping our customers achieve their technology goals across a broad range of industries.鈥�
91制片厂 is showcasing its latest innovations in Molecular Beam Epitaxy at , February 17-20 at the Arabella Brauneck Hotel Conference Center in Lenggries, Germany.
