LED upstream

China’s LED industry profits from the relatively low strength of the industrial chain in the middle and lower reaches of development, the upstream devices and chips has always been a weak link power domestic LED industry in the heart of pain. Upstream enterprises over the years, the domestic LED through a series of independent scientific and technological innovation, enterprises in and abroad in the process of constantly struggle, gradually grow up.
On the one hand, MOCVD equipment localization of break the monopoly of the foreign enterprises. The key equipment for a long time, as the production of LED chip, MOCVD equipment market has been dominated for the European and us companies. Equipment is imported to, operating equipment also hired engineers, once the personnel loss, little technology accumulation. Obviously, this business model can actually make money when the market good, the market is bad, the natural unsustainable. So, domestic equipment is the carrier of technology innovation of LED in China, China’s LED industry to further development, must have a domestic equipment for support. Therefore, “semiconductor lighting technology development special” twelfth five-year “plan is put forward, in order to achieve localization of large-scale MOCVD equipment and key supporting materials.
Beginning at the end of last year, zhao letter from guangdong, light optronics enterprise about the MOCVD equipment such as localization of the good news is coming. With independent intellectual property rights of MOCVD equipment localization success, thought related technologies by foreign monopoly situation for a long time will be broken, independent domestic LED industry ecosystem also will be more perfect.
However, many in the industry began to worry about domestic MOVCD equipment of living space, after a round of shopping spree, with the current depressed market, epitaxial new dish manufacturers have to customize the new MOVCD equipment?
