ARC Energy is a U.S.-based manufacturer in the computers and electronics manufacturing sector that specializes in sapphire crystal growth, handling, and processing equipment. The company was founded in 2007 by Dr. Kedar Gupta and Dr. Rick Schwerdtfeger to pursue lower-cost methods for producing sapphire crystals and to enable the use of larger-diameter substrates for LED applications. Based in Nashua, New Hampshire, it operates as a small to mid-sized firm. Its customers include makers of high-brightness LEDs, mobile phone components, sapphire screens, and other sapphire-based optical and military components. The company envisions that its forthcoming technology will reduce the cost of sapphire screens, lenses, and substrates across sizes, including those used in mobile devices.
