Product Definition:
Indium phosphide wafers are used to make semiconductor devices, including light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and lasers. They are also used in optical communications and other high-tech applications.
2 inches:
2 inches is the maximum size of Indium Phosphide (InP) Wafers that can be processed by the current technology. The 2-inch wafer has a diameter of about 0.3 mm and is made from purified indium phosphate, which contains no aluminum and hence poses no risk for yield degradation due to contact with aluminum during wafer processing.
3 inches:
3 inches is a term used for the thickness of a single layer of Indium Phosphide (InP) wafer. It is also known as Single-Sided Wafer (SSW). The 3 inches wafers are majorly used in compound semiconductor devices such as LEDs, Organic Light Emitting Diode(OLED), and Micro Electro Mechanical System(MEMS) which require thin indium phosphide layers for electrical contacts.
Application Insights:
The telecommunications segment accounted for the largest share in 2015 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this application segment can be attributed to increasing demand for high-speed wireless data transfer services across various regions. In addition, growing demand from other applications such as microelectronics and optoelectronics is also expected to contribute towards overall industry growth during the same period.
Indium phosphide has several advantages including low power consumption, high bandwidth efficiency and excellent electrical properties which are likely to propel its use in numerous electronic products over the coming years. This will further increase industry penetration leading Indium Phosphide (InP) wafer suppliers into developing new production facilities at a much faster pace than anticipated earlier.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to increasing demand for smartphones, rapid technological advancements, rising number of manufacturing facilities in China and India as well as Japan, and growing adoption of high-speed internet services.
The Asia Pacific regional market includes countries such as South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore among others. These countries are majorly contributing towards the telecommunication industry owing to increased penetration rates for smartphones along with growing demand for 4G LTE-enabled devices. In addition there has been a significant rise in demand from other microelectronics applications due to their low operating costs coupled with favorable government policies regarding foreign direct investments (FDI).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for InP wafers from the optoelectronics and photonics industries on account of their superior optical properties
- Rising demand for InP wafers in the semiconductor industry due to its use in high-performance integrated circuits and light-emitting diodes
- Growing adoption of InP wafers in solar energy applications owing to their high efficiency and low cost
- Proliferation of next-generation 5G networks, which will require massive increases in wireless infrastructure capacity, providing a major growth opportunity for InP wafer manufacturers
