PLAINVIEW, N.Y., June 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Veeco Instruments Inc. (NASDAQ: VECO), a global leader in compound semiconductor process equipment, today announced the first commercial acceptance and qualification of its LUMINA+ metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) system by Ennostar Corporation, a leader in optoelectronic semiconductors. The order sets a new benchmark for high-volume arsenide and phosphide (As/P) production.
“We see LUMINA+ as a game-changer for the fast-growing As/P market,” said Anil Vijayendran, Vice President of MOCVD Product Line Management at Veeco. “It’s validation by an industry expert like Ennostar that effectively positions Veeco as a leader in enabling advanced optoelectronic devices. We’re excited to offer this platform to the industry, combining our proven TurboDisc® technology with breakthrough productivity.”
With an evaluation process that began in late 2025 at its Taiwan facilities, the LUMINA+ system is now qualified for production, demonstrating unprecedented speed of product qualification and capacity scalability. Ennostar will deploy the tool in high-volume production of high-end optoelectronic devices. With the largest-capacity reactor in the industry, and high throughput, the system is engineered to meet customers’ stringent performance requirements with improved process efficiency.
According to industry analyst firm Yole Intelligence, the market for microLED display panels will reach nearly $7 billion by 2032, a 10-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 87%, driven predominantly by augmented/mixed/virtual reality and television displays. By combining scale with precision, the LUMINA+ system aligns with the compound semiconductor industry’s roadmap for high-performance, cost-effective optoelectronic devices manufactured at scale, helping drive innovation across consumer electronics, automotive, optical communications and biosensing.
