University of South Carolina buying Taiyo Nippon Sanso MOCVD platform
Industrial gas company Taiyo Nippon Sanso Corp (TNSC) of Tokyo, Japan (part of Nippon Sanso Holdings Group) says that a TNSC SR4000HT metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) reactor is being purchased by the University of South Carolina for R&D of advanced ultrawide-bandgap nitride materials and device technology.
“Taiyo Nippon Sanso is looking forward to working with professor Asif Khan and the University of South Carolina research community to further enhance its already great reputation as leaders in the field of nitride semiconductor research,” says TNSC’s senior corporate officer Kunihiro Kobayashi.
“The selection of the TNSC SR4000HT MOCVD system and partnership with Taiyo Nippon Sanso enables the University of South Carolina to have state-of-the-art growth capabilities for high-aluminium-content AlGaN alloys and other nitrides,” says Khan, Distinguished Professor Electrical Engineering & director of The Photonics and Microelectronics Laboratory. “We are eager to leverage TNSC technology to push the boundaries of nitride semiconductor research.”
As research and applications for advanced nitride materials and devices expand, TNSC expects its HT (high-temperature) MOCVD platforms to be the platforms of choice for researchers and manufacturers.
