According to reports, with LED backlight TV and lighting system has become more widespread, LED rising demand, the manufacturers began to build LED factory.

TSMC and De Core Nanosemiconductor plans to build its own cast the first LED chip factory to enter the LED supply chain, while the American Xuming SemiLEDs are already a LED capacity expansion work.

SemiLEDs early this year, Foshan, Guangdong province in China intend to invest and the new LED chip factory, the factory's construction will be responsible for its Xurui Optoelectronics. SemiLEDs the latter invested 350 million U.S. dollars, which owns 49% of the shares, the remaining 51% owned by six companies share.

TSMC's first LED chip factory in the Hsinchu Science Park is already broke ground, they believe their experience on the same integrated circuit suitable for production of LED. TSMC's new business director Dr. Rick Tsai said they will use the industry-leading experience in semiconductor manufacturing to processing, packaging and test LED.

In addition, De Core Nanosemiconductor also plans to invest 20 billion U.S. dollars by building a new factory LED.
