Market Overview:
The global epi wafer market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for LED semiconductors, power semiconductors, and MEMS-based devices. Additionally, the growing demand for miniaturized and high-performance devices is also contributing to the growth of this market. Regionally, North America is expected to lead the global epi wafer market during the forecast period followed by Asia Pacific and Europe.
Product Definition:
Epi Wafer is a type of semiconductor wafer that is used in the fabrication of integrated circuits. It is made of silicon and has a very thin layer of epoxy on its surface. This layer allows it to be attached to other devices or circuits. Epi Wafers are important because they are used to create the thin film transistors that are found in many electronic devices.
2 inches:
2 inches is a unit of length that has been in use for decades. It's primary function was to serve as a convenient unit for cutting cloth and fabric into uniform sizes to make clothes, until the advent of meters and yards. The most common uses of 2 inches are in clothing, bedding & furniture sizing (queen size mattresses), paper sizes (newspaper printing), paint lines (household paint) and electronic component pinouts (computer circuit boards).
4 inches:
Epi Wafers are thin pieces of silicon wafer that is used in the manufacturing of integrated circuits (IC) and semiconductors. The size of an epi wafer ranges from 0.9mm to 1.5mm, with a typical thickness between 1um and 3um, depending on the application requirements for each industry segment such as automotive & transportation, consumer electronics & appliances among others.
Application Insights:
The LED semiconductor segment accounted for the largest share of over 40.0% in 2017 and is projected to witness significant growth during the forecast period. The growing demand for LEDs in various applications such as backlighting, digital displays, lighting, and sensors is expected to drive the global epi wafer market over the forecast period.
They are also used in inertial measurement units (IMU), Global Positioning Systems (GPS), bar code readers/ scanners among others that require highly accurate MEMS components. The increasing adoption of these devices across several end-use industries including automotive & transportation; healthcare; consumer electronics; aerospace & defense; industrial applications on account of improved performance characteristics is anticipated to propel industry expansion over the coming years.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global epi wafer market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to various factors such as increasing demand for LEDs, rapid industrialization, and favorable government policies. Moreover, China is projected to play a key role in driving regional growth owing to its large production base of LED devices.
The European region accounted for a significant share of global revenue in 2017 owing to the presence of major players such as Giesecke+Devrient Mobile Communications GmbH & Co., Samsung Semiconductor Europe Ltd., Infineon technologies AG, among others. However, slow growth rate and high level of uncertainty regarding Brexit are expected negatively impact epi wafer demand from 2018 until 2030 timeframe.
North America region also had a good performance due to increased spending on defense sector by U.S.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for miniaturization in electronic devices
- Rising demand from the automotive industry
- Growing popularity of wearable technology
- Proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices
- Increasing demand for semiconductor components
