SANTA CLARA, Calif.--Varian Semiconductor Equipment Associates Inc. extended its lead in the ion implanter business last year, with 33 percent market share in 2003, verses 29 percent in 2002, according to VLSI Research Inc.

Varian was followed by Applied Materials Inc. and Axcelis Technologies Inc. in terms of market share in the ion-implanter arena, according to VLSI Research.

Applied's market share fell from 24 percent in 2002, to 22 percent in 2003, according to the Santa Clara-based research firm. Axcelis' share dropped from 24 percent in 2002, to 20 percent in 2003.

"Varian performed well in the medium current ion implant market and was the only company to report sales growth in the high-energy-implanter market, according to VLSI Research. "Number two ranked supplier Applied Materials maintained its position from a year ago due to its continued leadership in the high current ion implant market."
