PROFILE |
 |
Cree is determined to brighten your day. The company (formerly Cree Research) makes silicon carbide (SiC) diodes and wafers. Its blue and green light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which account for about 65% of sales, are used by companies such as Siemens to make dashboard lights, market tickers, and video screens, including the giant screen in New York's Times Square. Cree also provides SiC wafers, which work at higher temperatures and voltages than standard silicon wafers, primarily for research labs. About two-thirds of sales come from customers outside the US. The company has used acquisitions to broaden its selection of high-brightness LED and radio-frequency transistor products.
