the growing demand for LEDs in the consumer electronics and general lighting industries

Most companies in the semi-conductor industry also require vendors to re-qualify products when a new manufacturing facility is opened.  Rubicon has been in the re-qualification process with a number of existing customers who have previously purchased six-inch wafers produced in Rubicon’s led high bay light facility.  The Malaysian facility now has qualified with a major customer.  The qualification process involves successful production of LED chips on Rubicon six-inch sapphire wafers and rigorous testing of those chips in various applications.

Rubicon’s custom equipment and manufacturing processes position the company as the leading provider of high quality, large diameter sapphire wafers to manufacturers of LEDs worldwide. Rubicon’s Malaysia facility, combined with its new crystal growth facility in Batavia, IL – both leveraging large-diameter sapphire -- were established to deliver the sapphire capacity necessary to support the growing demand for LEDs in the consumer electronics and general lighting industries.   

Our facility in Malaysia further increases our ability to deliver large diameter sapphire wafers in large volumes to customers worldwide,” said Raja Parvez, Rubicon President and CEO. “I am very pleased with the led linear high bay light progress we have made in the establishing this state-of-the-art facility and am proud of the work our team has done in implementing the same world class systems we maintain in our U.S. operations.”
