Veeco GaN MOCVD tool debut captures LED TV momentum By Debra Vogler, senior technical editor February 17, 2011 -- Veeco Instruments' new TurboDisc MaxBright GaN MOCVD multi-reactor system is poised to take advantage of what the company believes is an accelerated rate of LED TV penetration (Fig. 1). According to Jim Jenson, VP of marketing at Veeco, who cited DisplaySearch/Veeco estimates in a podcast interview with SST, LED TV penetration is expected to reach 50% in 2011 and increase to ~80% in 2013, or perhaps sooner. Among the reasons LEDs are replacing LCD TVs that are backlit with CCFL technology are: * LEDs enable much thinner TVs and lower power consumption, * LEDs have better display characteristics (e.g., LEDs can do local dimming in direct-lit displays), * LEDs do not contain mercury, as do CCFLs. podcast interviewListen to Jenson's interview: Download (iPhone/iPod users) or Play Now electroiq.com
