ULVAC Wins Order From NexPower Technology Corporation For Complete Solar Cell Manufacturing Plant To Be Built In Taiwan
Following a 2 year period of study and preparation, United Microelectronics Corporation (UMC) subsidiary NexPower Technology Corporation has decided to establish a new solar cell manufacturing plant in Taiwan. They have signed an agreement today to use ULVAC’s full-scale thin film manufacturing line equipment which will include all solar cell manufacturing peripheral equipment such as plasma CVD equipment, laser scribing equipment, sputtering equipment, and sealing equipment, etc. In addition, ULVAC will provide all the actual production training and start-up of the manufacturing line which will handle 1.1m x 1.4m size substrates, suitable for main power electric generation.

In rooms littered with tubes and metal canisters, Valy Vardeny works with physics graduate students to discover a more efficient way to produce electricity from the sun using organic, carbon-based materials. Vardeny, a distinguished physics professor, is heading the project to develop new versions of solar power to be used on windowpanes and the sides of buildings.
