BluGlass receives $600,000 order
Australian green technology company BluGlass has received a significant order commitment from a new UK customer for its specialist epitaxy development.
Worth around $600,000, the order is scheduled to be delivered over the next 12 months.
The UK based customer is developing GaN technology targeting LED and other applications. BluGlass recently fulfilled a small order for this customer. This new larger order commitment will be used for a new innovative project.
BluGlass' Remote Plasma Chemical Vapour Deposition (RPCVD) process is designed to grow semiconductor materials such as GaN and InGaN with advanced performance and low cost potential.
The RPCVD technology, because of its low temperature and highly flexible nature, offers many potential benefits over existing technologies including higher efficiency, lower cost, substrate flexibility including GaN on silicon and greater scalability.
BluGlass managing director Giles Bourne said: "This single order from a new customer is the largest foundry order that the company has received to date. The BluGlass foundry business continues to attract select customers and we are excited to be working with the innovators that will be leading the nitrides industry into the future".
