EV Group Launches Second-Generation EVG620HBL Mask Alignment System for LED Manufacturing
EV Group today announced the EVG620HBL Gen II - the second generation fully automated mask alignment system for volume manufacturing of high-brightness light-emitting diodes (HB-LEDs). Introduced one year after the launch of the first-generation EVG620HBL, the Gen II delivers a tool platform tailored to address HB-LED customer-specific needs and the ongoing demand of total cost-of-ownership reduction. The EVG620HBL Gen II also optimizes tool foo...
Bridgelux announces new breakthrough in GaN-ON-silicon technology for solid-state lighting
Bridgelux Inc has shattered its previous industry record for highest Lumen per Watt values for Gallium Nitride on Silicon (GaN-on-Si). Using its proprietary buffer layer technology, the company has demonstrated growth of crack-free GaN layers on 8-inch silicon wafers, without bowing at room temperature, extending the company’s lead in driving the performance and manufacturability of GaN LEDs on silicon substrate.
Emergency bearings for magnetic bearing systems
Nick Dowding, Applications Engineering Manager at The Barden Corporation (UK) Ltd, explains why magnetic bearings are proving a popular alternative to traditional mechanical systems and the challenges in protecting those systems.
