Three-Year Contract for Micro-Optical Components

Jenoptik has secured a valuable three-year framework agreement with a “global technology group” to provide complex micro-optical components used in semiconductor production.

Head of the company’s Advanced Photonic Solutions division, Dr Ralf Kuschnereit, said the agreement “underlines the high level of confidence of our long-standing customer and partner in Jenoptik’s leading expertise in optical and photonic solutions in the field of semiconductor equipment.”

Jenoptik has seen demand increasing for optical components and systems for the semiconductor equipment industry for some time. Against this backdrop, the Group began to significantly expand its manufacturing capacities in Dresden last year, with the construction of a new high-tech factory. In future, micro-optical products will be manufactured here, which will mainly be used in systems for semiconductor lithography.
