University orders shower head
Ohio State University orders AIXTRON system for solar cell development.
AIXTRON announced an order for a close coupled shower head (CCS) MOCVD reactor from the Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, USA, received in the third quarter 2008.
The CCS tool in the 3x2" wafer configuration is planned to be delivered to the Ohio State University Institute for Materials Research (IMR) and the Wright Centre for Photovoltaics Innovation and Commercialisation (PVIC), a state funded centre to promote university industry research collaboration and commercialisation in photovoltaics.
Dr. Steven A. Ringel, the Neal A. Smith Chair Professor in Electrical and Computer Engineering and Director of the Ohio State University (OSU) Institute for Materials Research states that “the AIXTRON MOCVD system will be a centrepiece for advanced photovoltaics research occurring in this new PV research centre. Its installation in OSU’s state of the art Nanotechnology West Laboratory alongside a comprehensive set of complementary processing, fabrication and testing facilities will support our comprehensive research activities in all areas of advanced semiconductor science and technology. We are looking forward to the delivery of this system at the beginning of 2009.“
