Veeco announces MBE orders

June 22, 2006 – Veeco Instruments Inc. announced that it has received two orders for its GEN200 molecular beam epitaxy system. The first order is from IPG Photonics, which will utilize Veeco’s GEN200 MBE for the production of high-quality GaAs-based lasers.

The second order is from a multi-billion dollar electronics manufacturer, and includes a technology collaboration focused on depositing oxide films on silicon wafers with MBE technology.

IPG Photonics is a designer, manufacturer and seller of unique fiber lasers and amplifiers and diode lasers that enable a growing number of applications in the materials processing, telecom, medical, aerospace, government and scientific markets.

The second system order from a leading electronics manufacturer also includes a technology development collaboration utilizing a GEN200 at Veeco’s St. Paul, Minnesota MBE process integration center. The collaboration is focused on depositing oxide films on silicon wafers with MBE technology. The process development will occur in parallel to the manufacturing of an identical system that will be delivered to the customer after completion of the process development.
