18 January 2023

III-V Epi provides a fast turnaround service for custom, compound semiconductor wafer design, manufacturing, test, and characterisation. By focusing on low to medium volume manufacture, the company has been able to provide MBE and MOCVD, III-V, epitaxial structures, and overgrowth services with shorter lead times than the industry standard.

Calum McGregor, director of III-V Epi, said, “III-V Epi has helped many customers bring new, compound semiconductor products to market quickly, with its reduced lead time manufacture. This has been achieved by using two key strategies. Firstly, by specialising in medium to low volume supply, we have been able to separate ourselves from the volume part of the industry, dominated by consumer product giants swallowing up the world’s production capacity. Secondly, we have removed potential NPI bottlenecks for customers by offering expertise in every part of the process, from wafer design, product development and process optimisation through to a complete range of test, metrology, and characterisation services.”

III-V Epi’s unique approach makes it the ideal supply partner for companies requiring low volume supply, such as universities, start-ups, and smaller scale industrial businesses. III-V Epi already supplies devices for communications, telecoms, quantum technology, defence, security, automotive, agriculture and additive manufacturing markets.
