SAMCO to distribute Epiluvac's SiC CVD systems in Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia and Philippines

Epiluvac AB of Lund, Sweden – which was founded in 2013 and produces silicon carbide (SiC) chemical vapour deposition (CVD) systems used in power device research – has signed an international distributor agreement granting SAMCO Inc of Kyoto, Japan the exclusive distribution rights in Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia and the Philippines.

SAMCO sells its dry etching and CVD systems in Asia, Europe and North America in addition to gaining market share within Japan. The firm's dry etching and plasma CVD technology serves applications involving wide-bandgap semiconductor materials (e.g. RF devices, LEDs, lasers, and power devices). In particular, SAMCO has recently focused on selling production systems for next-generation gallium nitride (GaN) and silicon carbide (SiC) power devices. 

Having combined Epiluvac's SiC CVD system with its existing product lineup of plasma CVD, dry etching and surface treatment systems, SAMCO says that it now offers a 'one-stop solution' for SiC power device applications.
