About Us
Established in 1999, GESemi continues to work with many end users and OEM’s to provide a means to recover a fair market value for their underutilized, surplus & manufacturing and test equipment. The equipment offered through these programs range from new, never used or installed equipment, to older equipment ideal for the smaller wafer sizes used in the Optoelectronics industry, to equipment requiring refurbishing or use as spare parts to support other older equipment within the industry.
Our eBay store is consistently rated 100% in reviews of our value, service and extensive parts list.
Our Strengths
GESemi specializes in the sale of semiconductor fabrication plants globally. From our roots in Silicon Valley we have developed deep relationships with the world’s largest producers of wafer fabrication and assembly products.
Our skill sets have grown along with the industry as it has evolved through numerous wafer size increases from 3″ to 12″ and ongoing geographical adjustments. We are in every way a global enterprise.
Our understanding of the complete manufacturing process, from front end to back end, is unmatched in the industry. We offer specialized knowledge in the resale of many asset classes including deposition and sputtering, ion implantation, dry plasma and wet etching, PECVD, diffusion and oxidation, photolithography, metrology, wafer bonding, soldering, weld scanning, optical test, polishing, dicing, wafer probe and test, lab and analytical, assembly and packaging equipment.
GLobal Provider
Few companies have the practical, financial, operational and specific semiconductor asset experience to execute a purchase transaction or service related engagement of significance size.
