"During the third quarter of 2009, AIXG recorded revenues of EUR82.0 million, a 28% increase compared to EUR63.9 million in the same three months period last year. The positive average U.S.-dollar/euro rate and the progressively strong revenue volumes within the recent quarter contributed to a strong revenue number. Cost of sales improved from 58.0% of revenues in Q3 2008 to 57.6% of revenues in the current reporting period.

"During the third quarter of 2009, the Semiconductor-Nanowires for Solar Cells and LEDs (NaSoL) research project, supported by the state of Northrhine-Westfalia, was formally approved and started. Under the project leadership of AIXG, and in cooperation with the University of Duisburg-Essen and other industrial partners, the research project team will design and build a technology platform for LEDs and solar cells employing nanowire-structures. The project's goal is to develop new growth processes for nanowires, replacing traditional semiconductor layers, using metal organic gasphase epitaxy. The plan is to increase the efficiency both of solar cells and of white LEDs."
