AIXTRON SOLAR TOOL
[BIZ/SCI-TECH: Aachen, January 27] The MOCVD tool is to be delivered in 15x4 inch wafer configuration with options to utilize up to 8 inch wafers and will be shipped in the first quarter of 2009. INER will utilize the reactor as part of its High Concentration Photovoltaic System Research and relevant advanced Development Project. This is targeting III-V based higher efficiency photovoltaic devices for its High Concentration Photovoltaic (HCPV) project, in which INER has already demonstrated a 100kW solar power system.
Aixtron AG has announced the Institute of Nuclear Energy Research (INER), based at Taoyuan, Taiwan, ordered an AIX 2800G4 Planetary Reactor system for the production of Germanium / III-V based solar cells in Q4 2008.
