Product Definition:
A sapphire substrate is a material made of crystallized aluminum oxide (Al2O3) and is used in various electronic devices. It has a high melting point, making it an ideal material for use in electronics that require heat resistance. Sapphire substrates are also relatively chemically inert, meaning they are not affected by most acids or alkalis. This makes them ideal for use in devices that come into contact with corrosive materials. Additionally, sapphire substrates have a high hardness rating, making them scratch-resistant and durable.
C-Plane Sapphire Substrate:
C-Plane Sapphire Substrate, is a new material that was developed by the researchers of Korea Institute of Science and Technology in collaboration with scientists from Japan's Tohoku University. The research on this substrate was funded by the South Korean government through its National Research Council. The substrate has an appearance similar to natural sapphire and can be used as a substitute for pure sapphire in various applications including optoelectronics, lasers, sensors and windows.
R/M-Plane Sapphire Substrate:
R/M-Plane Sapphire Substrate is a new material that has been developed by researchers at the University of Rochester and the University of Maryland. It is an optically transparent substrate made from combining two different materials, one of which is a ruthenium-based alloy while the other one is a metal such as nickel or cobalt.
Application Insights:
The LED application segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2016 and is projected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The segment growth can be attributed to increasing demand for LEDs in various applications such as backlighting, digital signage, LCDs and plasmas. Sapphire substrate material is used for fabrication of LEDs with high efficiency by providing a smooth surface on which devices are mounted.
Sapphire substrates are also used extensively in RFICs owing to their properties such as low thermal resistance that results into lower power consumption and increased performance. These substrates provide excellent ground planes that help RFIC components perform better thereby enhancing overall system performance. Other than this, sapphire substrate material is also being increasingly used within silicon on insulator chip packaging due to its low thermal conductivity property along with excellent electrical insulation characteristics which further boosts product demand within this application segment.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The growth is attributed to the presence of a large number of semiconductor manufacturers in U.S. and Canada, which are actively engaged in developing advanced technologies for manufacturing integrated circuits on sapphire substrates using various techniques such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD), Reflow soldering, and others.
The Asia Pacific region is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing demand from end-use industries such as electronics, medical devices & instruments, solar energy equipment among others for building smart cities initiative by Indian government along with other national policies implemented since 2014 has led to an increase domestic production levels across several sectors including automotive components.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for sapphire substrate material from the LED lighting industry as a result of the growing trend of energy-efficient lighting.
- The increasing demand for smartphones and other consumer electronics products, which drives the need for more advanced and sophisticated sapphire substrates.
- Sapphire substrate materials are increasingly being used in optical applications such as endoscopes, microscopes, and other medical devices due to their superior optical qualities over traditional glass materials.
- Sapphire substrates are also being utilized in a number of new industrial applications such as semiconductor wafer manufacturing and solar cell production due to their superior thermal conductivity properties compared to traditional materials like silicon or aluminum oxide wafers .
