LEHIGH VALLEY, USA: Air Products announced it has been selected to supply gaseous nitrogen and oxygen, and liquid argon to Samsung Mobile Display (SMD) for its Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode (AMOLED) production. This is the second contract of its type following last year's contract for SMD's 5.5 generation AMOLED.
Air Products will build another air separation unit and pipeline at its Tanjeong, Korea site for gases supply to SMD's upcoming fab. Air Products will also build purification, filtering and monitoring systems. The company is currently supplying gaseous nitrogen and oxygen, and liquid argon to SMD's existing AMOLED fab in Tanjeong and two large-scale TFT-LCD facilities in Cheonan.
"Samsung has been a long-standing and strategic customer for Air Products. We are honored to have their continued confidence in our capabilities to support their growth," said Wayne Mitchell, VP and GM of the Electronics Division at Air Products. "This contract once again demonstrates our capability to serve the world's largest electronics customers with our infrastructure, technology advancements and product capacity in place."
Besides Tanjeong and Cheonan, Air Products has also recently announced nitrogen and pipeline expansions in many of the most important semiconductor and LCD manufacturing geographies around the world including Gumi, Korea; Tainan and Tai Chung, Taiwan; and Austin, Tex. and Chandler, Ariz. in the US.
