FPD/PV Production Equipment

Electronic Components and Computer Networks

Tokyo Electron supplies flat-panel display (FPD) production
equipment used to manufacture displays for PCs, LCD TVs
and other electronic devices, along with solid technical support and service.
The product lineup includes FPD coater/developer andplasma etch/ash system. The size of substrates handled bysuch equipment is increasing each year with the growing
popularity of large-screen LCD TVs.
Photovoltaic (PV) cells are in the spotlight these days as anenvironmentally friendly form of clean energy. In 2008,
Tokyo Electron added photovoltaic cell production equipment
as a new field of operations.

Tokyo Electron has developed a new type of dual model forthis business: the trading business handles sales, in which itacts as a distributor of a wide array of sophisticated electroniccomponents and computer network equipment, while thedevelopment business designs and develops products inresponse to customer needs, as well as our own in-housebrand products. Business operations for this segment arehandled by Tokyo Electron Device Limited.
