TSMC has little impact on the existing industry in the short term LED LED

In the past Taiwan LED industry in the long-term state of pile up in excess of requirement of a downward pressure on prices, which, by the end of 2007 Taiwan factory hand MOCVD machine is about more than 300 units, according to various manufacturers capacity expansion plans, expected by the end of 2008 may 400 on the MOCVD machine, can expand the range of high yield.

In addition, the new machine capacity than the old capacity, the overall productivity growth, but if the 2008 LED lighting, LED lamp, LED flashlight, mobile phone LED, LED backlight applications generally have a good growth rate, increase the production capacity can meet the needs of the future.

However, the LED chip Taiwan factory did not succeed in the LED backlight market maker NB panel used to attack cities and capture territories, LED chip m is still the Japanese manufacturers products in the most. Only crystal electric, can these round LED upstream plant has gradually improved the brightness of LED to a certain extent, the supply chain in the LED backlight only a day.

Therefore, although TSMC recently invested across the foot of LED epitaxial news comes out, but in the short term on the current LED little Taiwan factory ecological impact, but in the long term if there is a new development important, for the LED industry will greatly affect the existing.
