The rise of "China Core" in Ganpo: Jiangxi Zhaochi Semiconductor's counterattack

Entering the production workshop of Jiangxi Zhaochi Semiconductor Co., Ltd. in Nanchang High-tech Zone is like entering a technological fortress of precision operation. The MOCVD epitaxial equipment array is like a fleet ready to go. The fully automatic wafer inspection line shines with a blue mechanical light. Technicians in dust suits are staring at the data screen. The unique rigour of technology floats in the air. This giant, covering an area of 300,000 square meters, continues to rewrite the production record of the global semiconductor industry with an astonishing production capacity of 1.1 million 4-inch gallium nitride epitaxial chips per month and has become a dazzling business card made in China.
回溯 2017 年，深圳市兆驰股份掷下 100 亿元 "重注"，在南昌这片红土地上创立江西兆驰半导体。At that time, in the domestic LED chip market, European, American and Japanese companies occupied high-end production capacity with their first-mover advantage, and the road to domestic substitution was full of thorns. However, this new force with a registered capital of 1.6 billion yuan, with ambitions to break the situation, plunged into the epitaxial wafer and chip fields upstream of the LED industry chain. From sapphire wafers to patterned substrates (PSS), from LED epitaxy to chip manufacturing, Zhaochi Semiconductor has gradually built a unique R & D and production system for the entire industrial chain in Jiangxi Province, vowing to tear open the dilemma of domestic LED chips.
八年磨一剑，兆驰半导体实现了从行业 "追赶者" 到全球 "领跑者" 的华丽蜕变。As of 2024, its monthly production capacity of 4-inch gallium nitride LED epitaxial chips ranks first in the world, and its main business income has exceeded 5 billion yuan. MiniRGB chips account for more than 50% of the market, successfully ranking among Samsung, TCL and other international industry giants. List of core suppliers.
在技术创新的赛场上，兆驰半导体堪称 "实力悍将"。Walking into the company's technology center, the innovation answers in the past five years are eye-catching: a total of more than 1500 patents have been applied, of which 756 have been authorized. The patent layout covers key technical areas such as Mini/microled and high-efficiency lighting chips. Especially in the field of MiniRGB chips, the slimming revolution initiated by the company has caused a shock in the industry. With the self-developed patterned sapphire substrate technology, the chip size has been significantly reduced from the industry's common 3x6 mil to 2x6 mil, which not only reduces material costs by more than 10%, but also successfully opens up the second line for mass production of Miniled displays. At the MicroLED track, Zhaochi Semiconductor is also one step ahead and has completed the entire technology chain layout from epitaxial growth to massive transfer. The MicroLED chips developed have a luminous efficiency of up to 300lm/W, which is directly catching up with the international top level. Relevant pilot test lines have also entered a critical stage of sample verification. In addition, the 5G + smart factory built by the company achieves 100% digital operation of key processes through the deep integration of MES systems and Internet of Things equipment. The yield of single wafer remains stable at more than 97%, and production efficiency is increased by 20%-30%., setting a new benchmark for intelligent manufacturing.

As a key enterprise in the Yingshanhong Operation in Jiangxi Province, Zhaochi Semiconductor actively integrates into the local industrial ecology and plays a chain leader role.
作为江西省 "映山红行动" 的重点企业，兆驰半导体积极融入地方产业生态，发挥 "链主" 作用。Its 242-acre production base is not only the peak of global production capacity, but also builds a complete industrial closed loop for R & D, production and application. Upstream, we joined hands with Nanchang University to establish a Joint Laboratory for Semiconductor Materials to jointly overcome technical problems such as slow crystal growth of sapphire; downstream, we joined hands with local LED packaging companies to build a Nanchang MiniLED display industry cluster and promote the localization of the industrial chain. The rate jumped from 30% to 60%. Today, the company has directly created more than 2000 jobs, with R & D personnel accounting for 28%. In the Nanchang 8810 Action Plan, the Jiangxi Province Semiconductor Industry Innovation Alliance led by Zhaochi Semiconductor has attracted more than 50 upstream and downstream companies to join, forming a strong industrial cluster effect with an annual output value of over 10 billion yuan. As the person in charge of Nanchang High-tech Zone said, Zhaochi Semiconductor has long surpassed its positioning as a single production base and has become the core engine for activating regional industrial upgrading.
在绿色发展的新赛道上，兆驰半导体同样交出了亮眼答卷。In the factory area certified by ISO14001 environmental management system, a sophisticated environmental protection system operates efficiently: the wastewater treatment station adopts pretreatment + biochemical + advanced treatment processes, and the treated water quality is better than the national standard; the exhaust gas treatment system is equipped with RTO regenerative incineration device, with VOCs removal rate of more than 99%. In 2021, the company will be awarded the title of National Green Factory, and its green production experience will be included in the "Industrial Green Manufacturing Case Collection of Jiangxi Province." ldquo; We are committed to establishing a full life cycle carbon management system.& rdquo; The person in charge of environmental protection of the company introduced that through the construction of photovoltaic power stations and the renovation of energy-saving equipment, the energy consumption per unit of output value in 2023 will drop by 25% compared with 2019, and plans to achieve full coverage of carbon footprint verification by 2025. This development model that combines production capacity expansion with social responsibility provides a valuable China solution for the green transformation of the global semiconductor industry.
从赣鄱大地起步，这家民营企业用八年时光，书写了一部震撼人心的中国半导体产业逆袭传奇。In the great journey of domestic substitution and technological self-reliance, Jiangxi Zhaochi Semiconductor has taken the lead in integrating resources and bravely climbing innovation peaks, making China Core shine on the world stage and illuminating the future of China's semiconductor industry.
