Market Overview:
The global photomask inspection machine 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 rising investments in R&D by semiconductor device manufacturers. The die-to-die (DD) method is expected to hold the largest share of the global photomask inspection machine market during the forecast period, owing to its ability to detect defects on both sides of a mask simultaneously. However, the die-to-database (DB) method is projected to grow at a higher CAGR than other methods during the forecast period, as it offers several advantages over other methods such as reduced inspection time and improved accuracy.
Product Definition:
A photomask inspection machine is a device used to inspect the quality of photomasks. The importance of photomask inspection machines is that they help to ensure the accuracy and quality of the masks that are used in semiconductor fabrication.
Die to Die (DD) Method:
Die to die (DD) method is a new inspection method for wafers in the semiconductor industry. It was developed by IBM and named as one of the top innovations of 2011. The basic principle behind this technology is that two wafers are placed side by side with an insulating layer between them, then an electric current is passed through the second wafer, which causes all defects to appear on the first one.
Die to Database (DB) Method:
Die to database (DB) method is used for mask and reticle inspection. It helps in generating reports about the defects, failures and characteristics of wafers during the manufacturing process. The die to database (DB) method uses a data structure called as a "tree" which represents the relationship between nodes or leaves and their parents or branches.
Application Insights:
The semiconductor device manufacturers application segment accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030. The growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for photomasks and other inspection tools by this industry. Mask shops are also anticipated to witness significant growth owing to rising demand for masks across various industries such as automotive, medical, packaging, etc.
The mask shops application segment is expected register a notable CAGR during the forecast period due largely in part that these shops have been providing masks since before semiconductor devices were manufactured commercially; thus they have been an integral part of any electronics manufacturing process since its inception. Furthermoremask shop owners possess detailed knowledge about their inventory which enables them deliver high-quality products on time which further propels their adoption among customers worldwide who require these services during early stages of product development cycle or production ramp up phase.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific region dominated the global photomask inspection machine market in 2017. This is attributed to the presence of a large number of mask shops and semiconductor device manufacturers in countries such as China, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan and India. The increasing demand for electronic products along with growing investments by major players to expand their manufacturing capabilities are some factors expected to drive regional growth over the forecast period.
The Asia Pacific region is also home to several contract manufacturers who make use of third-party masks during wafer fabrication thereby driving market growth across this region.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for miniaturization in electronic devices
- Rising demand for advanced photomasks from the semiconductor industry
- Growing number of fabless companies and IDMs
- Proliferation of 3D printing and MEMS technology
- Emergence of new applications such as displays, solar cells, and lighting
