Présentation - AIXTRON
AIXTRON is the world’s leading producer of deposition systems for manufacturing innovative semiconductors. As a result, we play a decisive role in innovative products that are set to change the world – now and in the years ahead.
Semiconductors are an essential part of electronic components such as LEDs, lasers, transistors and solar cells. These in turn are important to a host of innovative applications, technologies and industries. This includes LED and display technology, data transmission, e-mobility, sensor technology, energy management and conversion, communication, signalling, lighting and many other complex high-tech applications.
This is as future-oriented as it gets: the products we are working on at any given time often don’t go onto the market until around 20 years later. What is more, many of our applications have the potential to significantly reduce energy and raw material use. As a result, we play a key role in making the world greener and more sustainable.
On the market since 1983 and founded by employees of RWTH Aachen University, we have been a recognised global player for many years. We operate worldwide and have sites in Herzogenrath (headquarters), the USA, the UK, Japan, Korea, China and Taiwan. Around 800 experts work for us, including around 600 in Germany – and the number is rising fast.
We collaborate with top-class universities, research centres and industrial partners around the world to deliver complex projects at national and international level. Intensive engagement with renowned scientists enables us to gain new insights in fields such as nanotechnology on a regular basis and constantly research new materials and technologies.
Our growth is also reflected by our market value: as a high-tech company with one of the best-performing shares on the market, AIXTRON is listed in both the MDAX and the TecDAX.
