PLAINVIEW, N.Y., August 14, 2018—Veeco Instruments Inc. (NASDAQ: VECO) today announced that a dual chamber GEN10™ automated molecular beam epitaxy
(MBE) cluster system won the tender offer by the
Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics, Halle (Saale),
Germany (MPI-MSP) to support world-class research on complex oxides.
Demand for oxide-nitride layer structures has increased due to their
enormous potential
in enabling next-generation energy-efficient nano-devices and advanced
data storage. The department of Nano-systems from Ions, Spins and
Electrons (NISE) at the MPI-MSP will leverage Veeco’s MBE technology to
expand research and develop innovative applications.
“Our
team is highly interested in exploring the properties of atomically
engineered oxide-nitride layer structures especially because of their
extraordinary properties but also for their potential
in paving the way to novel energy-efficient nano-devices,” said Stuart
Parkin, Director of the NISE Department at the MPI-MSP and Alexander von
Humboldt Professor, Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg, Halle.
“Veeco’s reputation and expertise in MBE combined
with the GEN10’s high reliability, throughput, customization and
automation capabilities will help support our research into novel
materials.”
This win at MPI marks the
first time Veeco has provided a fully integrated solution for a concentrated ozone source. The
GEN10 allows for up to three configurable, material-specific
growth modules, enabling high system utilization and allowing multiple
researchers use the system at the same time to perform unattended
growth.
By expanding its reach in the R&D sector worldwide, Veeco is leading the way in helping grow complex oxide structures.
“As
our MBE systems continue to expand their footprint in the global
R&D space, we are honored that Veeco’s GEN10 MBE system was selected
by the highly respected Max Planck Institute of Microstructure
Physics in Halle,” noted Gerry Blumenstock, vice president and general
manager of MBE and ALD products at Veeco. “We are pleased with the confidence Dr. Parkin and his team placed in our MBE expertise and we look forward
to supporting the MPI-MSP as it continues to lead R&D exploration and applications for complex oxides.”
