Ohio State University’s chooses Veeco MBE tool
Veeco Instruments has received an order from the Ohio State University for its GENxcel R&D MBE System, for epitaxial growth of high-quality GaSb semiconductors for infrared detectors (IR).
The system, winner of the 2018 Compound Semiconductor (CS) Industry Innovation Award, will be delivered to the Ohio State University’s Krishna Infrared Detectors Laboratory.
“We are excited to partner with Veeco to add new MBE research capabilities with the acquisition of the GENxcel system,” commented Sanjay Krishna, who leads the Krishna Infrared Detector (KIND) Laboratory at Ohio State University. “This will enable us to grow high-quality antimonide semiconductor material to explore novel device physics and train the next generation of students with advanced semiconductor skills.”
“We are honoured to have been selected by Krishna and his research team at Ohio State University,” commented Matthew Marek, senior director of marketing for Veeco’s MBE Group. “Krishna’s deep expertise in this field promises to advance the industry’s understanding of these materials, paving the way for new technological developments. Partnering with such a distinguished researcher enhances our commitment to driving impactful material science innovations. We look forward to continued collaboration with Krishna and his team.”
