Polymatech Electronics companions with Japan’s Orbray for sapphire wafer fabrication

Opto-semiconductors firm, Polymatech Electronics, on Monday mentioned it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Japanese precision manufacturing agency Orbray for sapphire wafer fabrication.

Orbray will provide Sapphire ingot rising applied sciences to Polymatech Electronics, and present coaching to Polymatech engineers at their facility in Japan. Sapphire ingots are crystals and are upstream supplies for the LED business.

With this, Chennai-headquartered Polymatech will enter into sapphire wafer fabrication and wafers fabricated of their facility can be used primarily for captive consumption.

“The excess capability can be catered to firms coming into the Indian marketplace for packaging and different ATMP and OSAT models who could require sapphire wafers and naked dies,” the corporate added. 

“With this, we transfer nearer to our firm’s imaginative and prescient of changing into a completely built-in end-to-end semiconductor firm. This MoU will allow us to progress in direction of changing Ingot into merchandise, thereby coming into the following degree of our development story,” Eswara Rao Nandam, Managing Director & CEO of Polymatech Electronics, mentioned.

We plan to use to the central authorities for capital subsidy for this wafer fabrication challenge, he added.
