Levitech BV sells a Levitrack ALD system to one of Taiwan’s largest solar cell makers

Levitech BV today announced that one of Taiwan’s largest solar cell manufacturers transferred a Levitrack Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) system to manufacturing, and placed an order for a second Levitrack system to be shipped in the second quarter.

“The Levitrack has a proven record in high volume manufacturing and our customer was satisfied with the excellent performance. They decided to order a second system for their expansion for the production of high-efficiency crystalline solar cells. This system will be used for PERC cells – with efficiencies exceeding 20% – , as well as multi-crystalline and n-type products”, said Jaap Beijersbergen, CEO of Levitech.

“This client chose our Levitrack ALD system based on its significant productivity, cost-of-ownership and process advantages over competitive PECVD and ALD systems for aluminum oxide (Al2O3) applications, Beijersbergen concluded.

The Levitrack’s unique spatial ALD process and high throughput result in a superior cost-of-ownership of the overall passivation process flow and helps any client to address current and future technology needs.
