Dr. B.J. Lee, Chairman of Epistar, comments, "It is with great pleasure that we are looking forward to the delivery of our latest AIXTRON multiwafer MOCVD tool order. Our two companies have enjoyed a long-lasting relationship and AIXTRON has always provided us with the world’s best equipment."

"We have great confidence in the technology and the service that they provide. This is the foundation of our success for the efficient volume production of world-class ultra-high brightness LED products. We know that we can trust that our 150th AIXTRON MOCVD tool will be as useful as our first, and we are also looking forward to bringing our recently ordered systems on stream in the very near future.”

Dr. Bernd Schulte, AIXTRON's Executive Vice President and COO, adds: “Epistar is a world leading manufacturer for UHB-LEDs and it was very satisfying to be able to present to them this award celebrating the 150 systems they have bought from us since we have worked together.

"Epistar has developed considerable expertise with the AIX 2600G3, producing some of the brightest AlInGaP LEDs in the market and has also developed extremely high performance GaN products with the AIXTRON Nitride Planetary Reactor® systems. We are very proud to have been able to contribute towards Epistar’s success over recent years.”
