Aledia orders Veeco's 300mm MOCVD systems for its upcoming MicroLED production fab

Veeco announced that France-based 3D GaN LED developer Aledia has selected the company's Propel 300mm HVM MOCVD system for its microLED production plant. Veeco says that the Propel system, featuring a SEMI-compliant Equipment Front End Module (EFEM) with cassette-to-cassette automation, was chosen due to its highest productivity with the lowest defectivity compared to alternatives.

Last month Aledia announced that it plans to establish a 140 million euros LED production fab in Champagnier, near Grenoble in France. The company already raised 80 million Euros and its great to see the company already ordering production equipment.

 

Aledia started working with Veeco in 2018 when it has selected Veeco Instruments's Propel GaN MOCVD system to support its advanced R&D. The company ordered several R&D systems, and is now moving to production systems.
