Market Overview:
The global mask inspection system market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for semiconductor devices and masks from various end-use industries, such as automotive, consumer electronics, and telecommunications. In addition, the growing demand for advanced inspection technologies is also contributing to the growth of this market. Based on type, die-to-die (DD) method is expected to hold a major share of the global mask inspection system market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its ability to detect defects on wafers with high accuracy and precision.
Product Definition:
A mask inspection system is a device that is used to inspect masks. The importance of a mask inspection system is that it ensures that the masks are of good quality and will protect the user from harmful particles.
Die to Die (DD) Method:
Die to die (DD) method is a new inspection technology that involves the use of digital light sources and a special optical filter. The technique helps in inspecting small defects on semiconductor wafers, which are usually difficult to detect using traditional inspection techniques such as X-ray and electron beam lithography.
The DD method provides faster turnaround time, reduces process variation & enhances yield for mask making applications.
Die to Database (DB) Method:
Die to database (DB) method is used for mask inspection system. It's a process of detecting cracks, fractures, and other defects in the ceramic layer by using software and a digital scanner. This method helps detect cracks in early stages; thus saving time & cost on repair or replacement later on.
The DB method uses image processing technology that allows computer to compare two images taken from different directions.
Application Insights:
The mask inspection system is used for various applications such as semiconductor device manufacturers, mask shops and others. The semiconductor device manufacturers segment dominated the market in 2017 and is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to factors such as increasing demand for integrated circuits, rising disposable income of consumers and rapid urbanization that are driving the demand for advanced technologies including 3D printing.
The Mask Shops application segment is also estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period owing to growing investments by governments in education infrastructure coupled with an increase in spending on healthcare which has resulted in a rise in number of patients requiring medical devices & equipment manufactured using photoresist technology over recent years.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region accounted for a revenue share of more than 35% in 2017 owing to increasing demand from mask shops as well as device manufacturers. Mask shop owners are increasingly preferring die inspection systems due to their high yield and accuracy, which helps them produce better quality masks at lower costs.
The growth of the regional market can be attributed to rising investments by prominent players such as ASI Technologies, Inc.; Nikon Corporation; Fujifilm Holdings Corporation; Koninklijke Philips N.V.; Hitachi, Ltd.; Panasonic Corporation; and others for expanding their manufacturing facilities in countries such as China & India thus creating numerous opportunities for industry expansion over the next eight years (2018-2030).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for mask inspection system from the semiconductor and electronics industry to ensure quality of products.
- Growing popularity of 3D printing technology that requires high-quality masks for accurate printing results.
- Proliferation of nanotechnology and MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical systems) that require sophisticated mask inspection techniques for fabrication processes.
- Rising number of fabless companies and IDMs (integrated device manufacturers) that need to outsource mask inspection services due to lack of in-house capabilities.
