Description
LPE Equipment for Flexible Use
The Key-Features of the SOF Optoelectronics ESY–10 Concept are a high Capacity combined with the Flexibility for various Types of LPE-Production Technologies. A Capacity of 50 Wafers for a Five-Melt-Process and 200 Wafers for a One-Melt-Process demonstrate the high Potential of this Type of Equipment.
In Addition to the standard ESY–10 Equipment for industrial Use, customer-designed Solutions with plenty of Options can be realised. The ESY–10 especially can be adapted to the Requirements of Research Institutes and Universities.
The ESY–10 can be designed as a one- or double- (twin) System to reduce the Size of Footprint in the Cleanroom.
