UV-C LED upstream competition is emerging, the downstream market of $500 billion "red eye"
A battle for the deep-UV LED market seems to be starting.
With a global production value of 500 billion US dollars, including: home market, medical, industrial and so on. The huge market output value is benefited from the product energy saving and mercury ban policy. The development of deep ultraviolet LED products has become one of the main market strategies for LED related manufacturers to enter the niche market.
Recently, HexaTech Inc. announced that it has signed two strategic agreements with OSRAM Opto Semiconductors.
The two agreements include a long-term supply agreement and several HexaTech intellectual property (IP) licenses, the former involving HexaTech's aluminum nitride (AlN) substrate, which is directly supported by HexaTech's 2-inch diameter substrate development project.
HexaTech is the world's leading supplier of AlN single crystal substrates. Based on its patented materials, the company has developed a unique and valuable knowledge base for optoelectronic, high power and radio frequency (RF) applications, helping to drive and facilitate the market's huge pull on HexaTech's base substrate technology.
John Goehrke, CEO of HexaTech, said: "We believe that this partnership with OSRAM has created a truly win-win situation for both parties. By licensing company technology, not only can OSRAM use HexaTech materials to accelerate the development of its UV-C LED components, And HexaTech is able to focus on the company's core competencies and supply world-class AlN substrates."
He added: "We are very pleased that the recognized industry leader OSRAM recognizes the enormous value of our intellectual property and substrates for UV-C applications, which once again proves our philosophy that the best substrate materials are the best components. The basis of performance."
Hans-Juergen Lugauer, head of UV-LED research and development at OSRAM Opto Semiconductors, said: "Thanks to OSRAM's strategy to actively extend our invisible optoelectronics portfolio to the UV-C wavelength range, we are ready to take advantage of this fast Growing opportunities to segment the market. Establishing a long-term strategic partnership with HexaTech, a recognized industry leader in AlN, will help us develop high-efficiency, high-reliability deep-UV (UV) devices that make OSRAM a major high-performance Optoelectronics technology suppliers offer a wide range of products from deep UV wavelengths to infrared wavelengths."
HexaTech is the industry's leading manufacturer of single crystal substrates for aluminum nitride (AlN). This substrate material supports a wide range of applications such as long-life UV-C light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for disinfection applications, deep-UV lasers for bio-threat detection applications, and for smart grids and efficient power conversion. High voltage power semiconductors.
HexaTech's existing product line includes single-crystal and polycrystalline AlN substrates, and the company is developing advanced component technologies based on AlN substrates.
Founded in 2001, the company has a team of experts in the III-nitride semiconductor industry. The team has successfully solved many challenges in composite materials science and engineering to achieve commercial mass production of high-quality bulk aluminum nitride.
