Market Overview:
The global photolithography agent 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 semiconductors and ICs, LCDs, printed circuit boards, and other applications from various end-use industries across the globe. In terms of type, the ArF immersion segment is expected to hold a major share of the global photolithography agent market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its ability to provide high resolution images with improved throughput as compared to other types of photolithography agents available in the market.
Product Definition:
A photolithography agent is a material that is used in the lithography process to create a patterned image on a surface. The importance of photolithography agents lies in their ability to produce very fine patterns with great accuracy, making them essential for the manufacture of semiconductor devices and other advanced technologies.
ArF Immersion:
ArF immersion is a photoresist material that is used in the fabrication of integrated circuits (IC). ArF immersion has low toxicity and offers high-performance for deep UV lithography. The growing demand for advanced packaging materials in the electronics industry coupled with increasing R&D activities to develop new materials for manufacturing semiconductors are expected to drive market growth over the forecast period.
ArF Dry:
ArF dry is a photolithography agent, which is used in the fabrication of semiconductor devices. It has wide applications in the electronics industry and finds major use in manufacturing integrated circuits (IC). Photolithography agents are also referred to as light-source or light-sensitive materials. These materials absorb or scatter incident sunlight and re-emit it as heat, which can be used to transfer images onto any surface.
Application Insights:
The semiconductors & ICs application segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2016 and is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. This can be attributed to increasing demand for integrated circuits from various end-use industries such as telecommunication, automotive and energy. The growing demand for high-density circuit boards with smaller size features has led to increased use of photolithography agents in IC manufacturing.
LCDs are expected to emerge as a fast growing application segment during the study period owing to their rising usage in numerous end-use industries such as consumer electronics, medical equipment and appliances, industrial displays and monitors among others. Photolithography agents are used during LCD production processes including lamination of glass sheets together with electronic components, which leads to an increase in product quality resulting into higher market penetration over the coming years.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific photolithography agent market is expected to grow at the highest CAGR over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to rising investments in R&D and increasing production of electronics across China, India, South Korea, Taiwan and Japan. In addition, growing demand for consumer electronics such as smartphones and tablets is anticipated to drive product penetration across this region.
The Asia Pacific was followed by Europe which accounted for over 25% of the overall revenue share in 2017 owing to high production volumes of semiconductors & electronic products such as microelectronics devices & systems (MES), integrated circuits (ICs) along with flat panel display manufacturing units in Germany, France Italy and other European countries. Moreover North America also has a significant presence due to rapid technological advancements resulting into higher adoption rates for new technologies along with favorable government policies supporting research activities pertaining towards development of next-generation ICs are some factors driving regional growth.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for miniaturization in electronic devices
- Rising demand for semiconductors and integrated circuits
- Proliferation of 3D printing technology
- Growing trend of nanotechnology
- Increasing investments in research and development
