Market Overview:
The global optical patterned wafer inspection equipment 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 advanced semiconductor devices and rising adoption of 3D printing technology. In addition, the growing demand for consumer electronics and automotive applications is also contributing to the growth of this market. Based on type, the global optical patterned wafer inspection equipment market can be segmented into dark field inspection and bright field inspection. Dark field inspection is expected to account for a larger share of this market than bright field inspection during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its ability to detect defects that are not visible under normal lighting conditions. Based on application, the global optical patterned wafer inspection equipment market can be segmented into consumer electronics, automotive, medical devices, aerospace & defense, and others (including semiconductor manufacturing). The consumer electronics sector is expected to account for a major share of this market during the forecast period owing to rising demand for smartphones and other electronic gadgets worldwide.
Product Definition:
Optical patterned wafer inspection equipment is used to inspect the optical patterns on a wafer. The importance of optical patterned wafer inspection equipment is that it can detect defects in the optical patterns on a wafer and ensure that the wafers are of high quality.
Dark Field Inspection:
Dark field inspection is a non-destructive test method used to detect the presence and position of objects on the wafer. It uses a laser beam that passes through the wafer and allows an image of what is on the other side to be captured by camera, which can then be analyzed by computer. The advantage of this technique over bright field inspection is that it does not require illumination from overhead light or lamp, thus saving time and reducing energy consumption.
Bright Field Inspection:
The optical patterned wafer inspection equipment market is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. This may be attributed to the increasing demand for advanced semiconductor devices and integrated circuits (IC) from various end-use industries such as telecommunication, computing, automotive, etc. The growing complexity of semiconductor devices and ICs has led to a need for more complex inspection processes leading to increased adoption of optical patterned wafer inspection equipment (OPWIE).
Application Insights:
The automotive application segment accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing production of electric vehicles, which require high-quality components made using photoresist technology.
Automotive is one of the key applications that use OMWI as it offers non-invasive and real-time inspection capability during various stages such as component design, prototype development & testing, manufacturing process development & validation and product launch & commercialization phases. Moreover, rising demand for advanced products with enhanced capabilities across all major automotive manufacturers such as Daimler AG; Ford Motor Company; General Motors Company; Toyota Motors Corporation; Nissan North America Inc.; Honda Motor Co., Ltd.; Hyundai Automotive Group Co., Ltd.; Mitsubishi Electric Corp.; Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd.; Renault S.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The growth is attributed to the presence of a large number of key players and increased adoption of advanced technologies in this region. Moreover, growing demand for consumer electronics products such as smartphones and tablets has led to an increase in patterned wafer inspection equipment sales within this region.
Asia Pacific is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing demand from end-use industries such as automotive, medical devices, aerospace & defense and others. In addition, rising investments by governments for manufacturing high-quality electronic components at low costs will drive industry expansion over the next eight years. Furthermore, rapid technological advancements coupled with expanding application scope are projected to further fuel regional product demand during the forecast period (2018 - 2030).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for semiconductor devices and components
- Growing number of fabs and wafer fabrication facilities
- Rising demand for advanced packaging technologies
- Proliferation of 3D IC technology and TSV (Through Silicon Via) technology
- Increasing adoption of optical patterned wafer inspection equipment in solar cell manufacturing
