MOCVD and deposition equipment for advanced semiconductor manufacturing
AIXTRON manufactures material deposition systems (MOCVD, PECVD, PVPD) for compound semiconductor production, serving customers building VCSELs, µLEDs, SiC/GaN power devices, and lasers. The tech stack reveals a company mid-transition: deeply embedded in SAP (ERP, CRM, integration suite, BTP) and cloud infrastructure (Azure, AWS, Kubernetes), now adopting Terraform for infrastructure-as-code automation. Active projects in cloud architecture optimization and supplier selection indicate AIXTRON is scaling internal operations and supply-chain resilience alongside equipment innovation.
AIXTRON SE, founded in 1983 and headquartered in Herzogenrath, Germany, is a public company employing 1,001–5,000 people. The company designs, manufactures, and installs deposition equipment for semiconductor fabs and R&D labs, enabling production of advanced optoelectronic and microelectronic devices on compound materials. Revenue streams come from production-scale systems, small-scale R&D equipment, process engineering, training, and after-sales support. The business serves customers across Asia, North America, and Europe who manufacture components for LEDs, display technologies, data transmission, energy management, and wireless applications.
AIXTRON specializes in MOCVD, PECVD, and PVPD deposition systems for compound semiconductors including VCSELs, µLEDs, SiC, GaN, and GaAs devices used in optoelectronics and power electronics.
AIXTRON runs on Azure and AWS, uses Kubernetes and Docker for containerization, and is adopting Terraform for infrastructure-as-code automation across both cloud providers.
