II-VI makes Multimillion-Dollar Expansion in Taiwan
Expansion in Taiwan will double II-VI’s ion implanter disk refurbishing capacity
II‐VI Incorporated will extend its ion implanter disk refurbishing services to Asia, with a multimillion-dollar expansion in Hsinchu City, Taiwan, which is expected to come online in July 2022.
The acute shortages of semiconductor devices in the global supply chain are driving the strong demand for refurbishment of wafer fabrication equipment. The expansion in Taiwan will effectively double II-VI’s global disk refurbishing capacity. Batch implanter tool owners in Asia will benefit from a rapid turnaround service that will enable them to maintain their tools in operation and sustain their production output.
II-VI implants tens of thousands of wafers per week and adds tools and capacity as required to support customers’ changing needs. II-VI maintains a large complement of high- and medium-current and high-energy production implanters handling 2-inch to 12-inch substrates. II-VI provides ion implantation services for silicon and compound semiconductor wafers, including heated ion implantation for SiC wafers.
