Hermes-Epitek Japan held an opening ceremony in the newly-built office this afternoon. It was kicked off by C.Y. Shu, Vice Chairman of Hermes-Epitek, and David Chen, President of Hermes-Epitek. Guests included Frank Hsieh, Representative of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office in Japan, and Kimura Takashi, Governor-elect of Kumamoto Prefecture and a number of local business partners.<\/p>\n<p>In response to customer demand and Japan&#8217;s proactive revival of the semiconductor industry, Hermes-Epitek decided to establish its first base in Kyushu, Japan in 2022. In addition to supporting long-term customers, Hermes-Epitek is also working hard to expand cooperation opportunities in Japan, including for manufacturing of compound semiconductors, such as silicon carbide (SiC), and advanced packaging.<\/p>\n<p>Advanced Ion Beam Technology, Inc. (AIBT), a subsidiary of Hermes-Epitek, has continuously developed and produced low-energy, high-current ion implanters for more than 20 years, and jointly promoted two-nanometer process equipment with the largest advanced process customer in semiconductors. AIBT has since become a key manufacturer of front-end semiconductor process equipment in Taiwan. AIBT&#8217;s iBlazar adopts the industry standard, Linear Scan. By integrating the latest technology, ISO Scan, and high-performance wafer transfer system, iBlazar has excellent particle defect control and high vacuum performance.<\/p>\n<p>SiC has high voltage and high current characteristics. It is particularly suitable for the upcoming electric vehicle applications. Japan is a traditional automobile manufacturing country, and Hermes-Epitek plans to create more cooperation opportunities in the Japanese automotive electronics market. In the compound semiconductor supply chain, Hermes-Epitek currently has a complete layout. Ranging from SiC boule, substrate manufacturing (SiC substrate), research and development of EPI process equipment (SiC EPI CVD), to testing solutions, Hermes-Epitek works to become a stable supplier and partner to major international automobile manufacturers.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hermes.com.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hermes-Epitek-opens-base-in-Kumamoto-Japan-to-accelerate-local-supply-chain-layout.pdf\">Hermes-Epitek opens base in Kumamoto, Japan to accelerate local supply chain layout<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hermes-Epitek&#8217;s first office in Japan, Kumamoto office, was officially opened on April 15.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[51],"tags":[],"show":[],"class_list":["post-15153","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
