The
evolution of microelectronic and optoelectronic technology accelerates year
after year. The degree of integration is enhanced at ever-higher speeds and the
production of semiconductor devices requires the constant upgrading of
production accuracy, production throughput, and production automation.
In 1973, ion
implantation technology was introduced to NISSIN HIGHVOLTAGE CO., LTD. by
HIGHVOLTAGE ENGINEERING EUROPA B.V. In 1983, an on equipment division was
established at NISSIN to promote expansion of this business and its related
technology. Since then, NISSIN has supplied its ion implanters to many
customers in Japan and overseas, and our market share of the ion
implanter business is now firmly established. Moreover, in 1990. NISSIN came
out with an ion implanter for low temperature poly-silicon TFT-LCDs. Named Ion
Doping System, it has become a leader in the Ion Doping system field. In 1995
NISSIN began to supply its best-selling EXCEED 2000 series. Following that, in 1999,
the Ion Equipment Division, which was in charge of NISSIN's ion
equipment business, was spun-off as a separate entity called NISSIN ION EQUIPMENT CO.,
LTD. This wholly owned subsidiary of NISSIN was created in order to provide more effective
customer service.
In 2000, the newly-founded NISSIN ION EQUIPMENT
CO., LTD, came out with the EXCEED 230q series (for 300mm. wafers), which is boasts
state-of-the-art nanometer technology. Today, NISSIN is one of the top suppliers of ion implanters
not only for the Japanese market, but also for the Asia-Pacific one, which includes China, Taiwan,
Korea, and Singapore. NISSIN will continue to develop the next generation of ion implantation
systems for future LSI and TFT-LCD processing, and strive to satisfy its latest needs of
its customers |
