TI2,

One company in this arena is Ferrotec, a Japanese company. They recently bought Ferrofluidics, an American company that makes (among many other things) crystal growing systems. They made the first U.S. made 300 mm crystal grower back in 1996. I think there are probably other Japanese companies operating in this business too, but I am less than an expert. I would suggest, though, that this would be a good question to post over on the MEMC Electronic Materials (WFR) thread, where there are some very knowledgeable posters.
