Rubicon Technology’s Latest Innovation Leads the Way for LED Industry

Rubicon Technology, a leader in producing sapphire substrates and products in the LED, RFIC (Radio Frequency Integrated Circuit), Semiconductor, and Optical industries, announced their latest innovation today: 12-inch polished wafers. These wafers are the largest high-quality, sapphire wafers ready for production of LEDs (light emitting diodes). Currently, Rubicon offers a wide range of exceptional sapphire substrates including two-, three- and four-inch core, and six-, eight- and 12-inch wafers.

As the demand for LED products rises, Rubicon Technology presents their newest innovation that will effectively deliver sapphire substrates to support the needs of consumer electronics and general lighting industries. Products in these industries include light bulbs, large displays, street lights, HDTVs, laptops and mobile phones leverage LEDs. Rubicon remains as the only vertically integrated producer of premium, large diameter sapphire wafers in high volumes, which makes it the most sought-after supply company for LED manufacturers around the globe.

With its advanced research and state-of-the-art technologies, Rubicon is helping to lead the way forward in the LED industry. “Rubicon has built a world renowned R&D and engineering team that is making great strides in the development of high quality large diameter sapphire including the first 12-inch wafer,” commented Raja Parvez, Rubicon President and CEO. “It takes unique technology with advanced processes to make high quality, large diameter sapphire at scale.
