PlayNitride selects Veeco MOCVD system
Veeco Instruments has announced that PlayNitride has qualified Veeco’s Lumina MOCVD system for production of next-generation microLEDs, and also placed an order for two systems for delivery in 2025.
PlayNitride’s decision followed a successful evaluation of Veeco’s Lumina MOCVD system.
“We’re pleased to partner with Veeco for production and commercialisation of our industry-leading microLED technology for wearables, TVs, transparent displays and automotive,” stated Charles Li, CEO and chairman at PlayNitride. “The Lumina system is uniquely positioned to exceed market requirements by providing best-in-class performance and productivity advantages, each essential in advancing our technology and cost roadmap.”
Core to the Lumina system is Veeco’s MOCVD TurboDisc technology, designed to enable thickness and compositional uniformity and low defects for high yields. The system is capable of depositing high quality As/P epitaxial layers on wafers up to eight inches in diameter. The Lumina system allows users to customise their systems for maximum value in delivering IR-LEDs, edge-emitting lasers, VCSELs, and solar cells in high volume production.
