(TM)) technologies.

This order represents a progressive step into next-generation solutions for High-k Dielectrics in DRAM Capacitor sub 45nm high volume production. DRAM technology continues to be a major driver of innovations in process technology and manufacturing equipment for Genus products.

Installation will start during third quarter 2006; revenues will be booked in the second half of 2006.

One year after the completion of the AIXTRON - Genus merger, the new entity reaps further significant benefits from its strength in product development.

ALD and AVD(TM) technologies have already demonstrated that they can overcome many of the limitations of current film deposition techniques. The process modules combining ALD and AVD(TM) technologies will be installed at the customer's purpose-built 300 mm R&D fab, are a driving force into mainstream/HV semiconductor processing.

The joint development program represents an important step forward in strengthening AIXTRON's position for providing enabling deposition solutions for these emerging semiconductor applications.

The initial work will focus on:

--Evaluation of various high-k dielectrics and metal gate materials for large-scale production purposes

--Integration of those materials into high-k gate stacks & advanced DRAM capacitors

--Optimization of DRAM and CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) Pronounced "c-moss." The most widely used integrated circuit design. It is found in almost every electronic product from handheld devices to mainframes.  device structures for Sub-45nm.

Dr. William W. R. Elder, the Member of AIXTRON's Executive Board responsible for all of AIXTRON's silicon business interests comments: "Many of Genus" primary customers are major chip manufacturers in the memory (DRAM and FLASH) segment of the semiconductor industry. The process modules are based on a patented process chamber concept and have achieved a leading position for the deposition of tungsten silicide sil·i·cide
