A leading chip manufacturer has placed a follow-on order with Axcelis Technologies for its Optima HDx high current implanter. Axcelis said that the customer had used the system in another fab and would now expand its adoption of the tool at its newest facility.
“This new win is part of a recent trend of orders for the Optima HDx, and demonstrates the growing acceptance and demand for our high current technology," noted Mary Puma, chairman and CEO of Axcelis. "We look forward to continuing to expand our installed base with this industry leader and supporting their evolving manufacturing and next generation development needs."
