RIBER, a global market leader for molecular beam
epitaxy (MBE) equipment serving the semiconductor
industry, is announcing an order
for a MBE
32 research
system in the United
States.
EPIR Inc., a company based in Bolingbrook,
Illinois, USA, has just acquired a new MBE 32P MCT research machine
to expand its manufacturing base and continue to provide its
customers with state-of-the-art material.
EPIR Inc. a wholly owned subsidiary of
Sivananthan Laboratories Inc., is a fast growing high-technology
company that develops state-of-the-art HgCdTe (Mercury-Cadmium
Telluride - MCT) semiconductors for infrared detection and imaging
devices. EPIR uses customized material growth technology, enabled
by the Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) equipment from RIBER and
including multiple epitaxial layers grown on either lattice-matched
CdZnTe for high performance applications or silicon substrates for
a lower-cost approach.
Dr. Silviu Velicu, EPIR’s President, stated
“RIBER was the main equipment provider for our MBE needs during the
last two decades and this new acquisition is a testimony to the
quality and reliability of the products it provides. The new MBE 32
MCT system to be installed at EPIR will help us address increased
commercial and government needs for high quality HgCdTe
material.”
Dr. Paul Boieriu, EPIR’s Chief Operating
Officer, expects that HgCdTe with high purity, low defect
densities, and high uniformity over large areas will exhibit state
of the art performance shortly after the installation of the MBE
32P MCT system in early 2023.
Philippe Ley, Chairman of RIBER’s Executive
Board, concluded: “Our MBE 32 product range has been in existence
for 40 years with an installed base of several hundred systems
worldwide. Among the wide range of materials that can be processed,
the epitaxial growth of mercury-containing compounds is one of
the most demanding thin film depositions characterized in MBE. For
four decades RIBER's MBE 32P has excelled in the arena of MCT
growth where unrivalled reference quality material has been
produced leading to manufacture ever more impressive devices. There
is no more powerful endorsement than repeat system business which
we see here again as our company is graced with another 32P
MCT order from EPIR who we know have total confidence in
transferring and enhancing existing processes from long established
working reactors to our modern version of this legendary MBE
system. We wish all at EPIR continued success in these most
demanding of R&D programs.”
