Sony to Buy Back Semicon Fab from Toshiba
Sony Corp. reportedly plans to buy back stake in Nagasaki Technology Center from Toshiba Corp. The fab that originally was owned by Sony became a joint-venture between Sony and Toshiba in early 2008 and the latter essentially gained control over the facility. Now Sony wants to regain control stake and start making CMOS sensors for various products at the factory.
