RIBER acquires ADDON, extends its technology portfolio, and avails itself of new markets


March 31, 2004... Riber acquired the ADDON company in full in a transaction dated March 31, 2004.

Established in 1996, ADDON is a French company that has grown through the design, manufacture and sale of innovative components for MBE research machines and for machines that produces OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) displays. ADDON realized some ? 1.6 million in sales for 2003. It has Operated profitably for many years now and enjoys a solid reputation internationally.

This is a technological acquisition, with ADDON?s activity complementing that of RIBER?s, andrepresents a diversification into OLED display applications.

RIBER thus expands its range of components for both MBE research and production machines. Some of the components sold by ADDON were not part of RIBER?s components portfolio. Thesecomponents have become necessary in order to master the MBE epitaxy process in new areas:nitride- Base epiwafers for future microwave and blue laser devices, extra-thin oxide films for HKinsulators for future CMOS, and evaporation of magnetic materials for future memories, areas inwhich RIBER has stepped up its R&D efforts.

RIBER also avails itself of new development opportunities in a different area of ​​application from that of epitaxy compound semi-conductors, by becoming a supplier of components for machinesthat produce OLED displays. Certain machine components are similar to those used in MBEmachines. OLED displays should enjoy strong Growth in the future. They are currently at the production stage for small surface areas, and aim for the medium term to serve the market for larger size screens sizes used in audio-video equipment and domestic appliances.

This acquisition thus enables Riber to strengthen its campus leadership and to diversify itselfin a growth market, while providing ADDON with new commercial and technical means toaccelerate its development.

Riber develops and manufactures Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) machines, high technology equipment essential to the manufacture of compound semi-conductor materials that are used in numerous consumer applications, such as wireless telecommunications, fiber optic networks and mass-market products.

LCD Home Projector

The lcd projector is the product of the combination of liquid crystal display technology and projection technology. It uses the electro-optic effect of liquid crystal to control the transmittance and reflectivity of the liquid crystal unit through the circuit, thereby producing different gray levels and as many as 1670 million colors. Beautiful image. The main imaging device of LCD projector is liquid crystal panel. Led projector, generally refers to the light source of the projector is LED light source, the brightness is not high, within 500 lumens. The difference between dlp and led, most of them are in Projection field to distinguish.
