By application, consumer electronics is expected to be the largest segment of the global RF epitaxial wafers market during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
RF Epitaxial Wafers are used to fabricate RF integrated circuits. They are made of a semiconductor material, such as silicon, germanium, or gallium arsenide, that has been grown on a single crystal substrate. The use of RF epitaxial wafers is important because it allows for the fabrication of very high-performance RF integrated circuits.
GaAs:
GaAs is a type of semiconductor material with wide bandgap, which can be used in RF and microwave applications. It has high thermal conductivity and low electrical conductivity. The material is being increasingly used for manufacturing RF epitaxial wafers due to its ability to provide good quality at low cost, as compared to silicon carbide (SiC) or silicon nitride (SiN).
InP:
InP is a crystalline solid and has the appearance of needles or thin rods. It is also referred to as single-crystal piezoelectric material. InP based RF epitaxial wafers are used in various applications such as front end modules (FEM) for mobile phones, high power amplifiers, filters, and oscillators among others.
Application Insights:
The consumer electronics segment accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is anticipated to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this application segment can be attributed to increasing demand for high-tech products from consumers around the world. Epitaxial wafers are used in various consumer electronic products such as mobile phones, microwave ovens, HD DLP (Digital Light Processing) TVs, etc.
The electric vehicle segment is expected to register a significant CAGR during the forecast period owing to rising demand for energy-efficient vehicles across various regions of the world. Growing concerns regarding global warming due to excessive use of fossil fuels are driving governments towards promoting electric vehicles as an effective substitute for conventional automobiles. This trend is likely to promote epitaxial wafer usage in electric vehicles over the next few years and thereby drive product demand globally.
Regional Analysis:
North America accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017. The U.S., being a global technology hub, has been witnessing an increasing demand for high-quality and low-cost RF wafers over the past few years.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for semiconductor devices from the consumer electronics and telecommunications sectors
- Proliferation of wireless communication technologies
- Rising demand for miniaturized and energy-efficient electronic devices
- Growing popularity of wearable technology
- Development of innovative manufacturing processes and materials
