Samsung LED this month to set up operation, capacity is expected to exceed the size of the crystal

Samsung force arch LED TV, in order to ensure adequate capacity, Samsung Electronics and Samsung Motors (Semco) in one fell swoop joint venture to set up a new Samsung LED company, is expected to be set up operations this month. The company's production capacity target for three years MOCVD epitaxial machine delta 200 units, capacity may exceed the size of crystal electric (2448).

Samsung LED was originally subordinate to a department under the Semco, but Samsung actively develop LED TV, in order to ensure supply, independent of the split Samsung LED, Samsung's positive LED career. In mid February Samsung announced the establishment of Samsung LED, after more than a month of preparation, the new company is expected to set up operations this month. Currently, there are about 70 Samsung MOCVD LED, the legal person estimated from 2009 to early 2010, Samsung LED Blu ray monthly production capacity of up to 1 billion 500 million. The next three years, Samsung LED production capacity will be expanded to the size of 200 MOCVD. And the legal circle, Samsung LED into 6 inch epitaxial crystal, if the smooth production, will help improve production efficiency and reduce costs.

Li Bingjie, chairman of crystal electricity, said the LED industry generally uses 2 inch epitaxial crystal technology, red LED value of four yuan for the use of the technology of inches, while the blue light is just entering the 4 inches, the technology is not mature, 6 inches. The larger the size of the wafer epitaxial wafer, the higher the fragmentation rate, yield to be broken, so now it seems, 6 inches and 4 inches short time cost difference is not large. Li Bingjie pointed out that there is a crystal electric run 5 inch epitaxial production line, not far from the 6 inch, but will first wait for the Samsung LED crystal in the development degree of 6 inches.

Samsung LED target to see 200 epitaxial machine, then the scale will be more than crystal tv. Li Bingjie believes that the impact of the Samsung LED crystal on 2009 is limited, but in the long term, as long as the future of the TV market up, even if the Samsung LED epitaxial machine to 200 units, production capacity is not enough.
