Carrie Yu, DigiTimes.com, Taipei [Tuesday 22 August 2006]
Chen Jin-zhi, former vice president of Quanta Display's (QDI) manufacturing department, will lead a team of factory directors and engineers from QDI to join China's Shanghai SVA-NEC Liquid Crystal Display (SVA-NEC), with Chen to be the first vice president at SVA-NEC that comes from Taiwan, according to the Chinese-language Apple Daily.
Chen had been appointed special assistant at AU Optronics (AUO) to help in the preparation for the merger between QDI and AUO, which will completed in October of this year. He was recently reported by the Chinese-language Economic Daily News (EDN) to have already stopped working at QDI.
AUO declined to comment on the news.
SVA-NEC will work with Japan's Fujifilm for a fifth-generation (5G) color filter (CF) plant, according to the Chinese-language Commercial Times.
The China-based panel maker has technology support from Japan's NEC and is currently operating a 5G TFT LCD plant, with a maximum monthly capacity of 90,000 glass substrates.
SVA-NEC accounted for 41% of the 15-inch monitor panel market and continued to become the number-one supplier in this segment in June, according to WitsView Technology.
