The company Led Cherry Tree is seeking a smooth process transfer up from their existing CRIUS MOCVD reactors to Aixtron´s new generation platform.

According to Forepi President Fen-Ren Chien, they are embarking on a whole new era of high volume blue Led Cherry Tree production at Jiangsu Canyang. To minimise risk and interruptions they have once again chosen Aixtron equipment. The outstanding performance of their existing CRIUS and G4 systems as well as the excellent design concept of the Showerhead technology. These will be Jiangsu Canyang´s first CRIUS II systems.
