(나스닥: VECO) announced today that Epistar Corporation (TSE:2448) has ordered multiple TurboDisc® EPIK™700 Gallium Nitride (GaN) Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD) Systems for the production of light emitting diodes (LEDs).

Based on Veeco’s proven TurboDisc technology and the proprietary Uniform FlowFlange™, the award-winning EPIK 700 MOCVD system enables customers to achieve an improved cost per wafer savings compared to previous MOCVD systems through improved wafer uniformity, reduced operating expenses and increased productivity.
“We believe that a leader such as Epistar ramping production to meet demand of LEDs is a positive sign for the industry as a whole,” said James T. Jenson, Senior Vice President, Veeco MOCVD Operations. “Veeco’s superior MOCVD technology is the number one choice of manufacturers looking for a competitive edge in a market that seems to be turning upward again. We look forward to supporting Epistar’s future MOCVD requirements as they continue their growth plans.”
