Market Overview:
The global semiconductor grade polysilicon market is expected to grow at a CAGR of xx% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for semiconductor grade polysilicon from the electronics and solar energy industries. In terms of volume, the 300mm wafer segment is expected to dominate the global semiconductor grade polysilicon market during the forecast period. However, in terms of value, the 200mm wafer segment is expected to account for a larger share of the market due to its higher price point. North America is estimated to be one of key markets for semiconductor grade polysilicon during 2018-2030 owing high demand from electronics and solar energy industries in this region.
Product Definition:
Semiconductor-grade polysilicon is a type of polycrystalline silicon that has been purified to a high degree for use in the semiconductor industry. It is used in the manufacture of integrated circuits, solar cells, and other electronic devices.
Grade I:
The grade I polysilicon has a composition of greater than 60% by weight of the total silicon content. It is produced using high-pressure, high-temperature techniques and has excellent electrical characteristics. Grade I polysilicon finds application in power devices such as solar cells and batteries owing to its superior properties including low resistivity, low leakage current, good thermal conductivity and higher energy density.
Grade II:
The grade II polysilicon has a composition of greater than 60% by weight of the total silicon content and less than 70% by weight of the total non-silicon content. It is produced using high-pressure, high temperature (HPHT) processes and possesses properties such as low density, low viscosity, good thermal conductivity & convection, and fair mechanical strength.
Application Insights:
300mm wafer was the largest application segment and accounted for a volume share of over 40% in 2017. 300mm wafer grade polysilicon is used as an etch stop in the production of semiconductors and also acts as a heat sink during the manufacturing process. The demand for 300mm WPE is expected to witness growth owing to its increasing use in foundry applications, which include silicon steel molding, investment casting and plastic injection molding among others. Foundry manufacturers require 300 mm WPE on account of its properties such as high thermal conductivity (TC) & resistivity (RD), low electrical conductivity (EC) & high dielectric strength along with other requirements such as surface finish, purity etc., which are majorly driving the global market growth.
Regional Analysis:
North America is expected to be the largest regional market over the forecast period owing to high demand from various end-use industries such as consumer electronics, automotive, and others. The U.S., being a developed economy with well-established manufacturing sector is anticipated to witness higher product penetration in future semiconductor designs and fabrication plants.
Asia Pacific was valued at USD X million in 2017 and this region is projected to grow at a significant CAGR over the forecast period owing to increasing demand for electronic products along with rising adoption of digital technologies across several industry verticals including Consumer Electronics (CE), Automotive (TEQ), Healthcare & Life Sciences (TLE) among others. This has led Asia Pacific Semiconductor Grade Polysilicon Market into prominence as one of the major global markets for GPGPSP today.
The growth can also be attributed towards growing investments by key players such as Jabil Circuit Inc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for semiconductor grade polysilicon from the solar energy sector on account of growing awareness about the benefits of using solar energy over other forms of renewable energy sources.
- Rising demand for semiconductor grade polysilicon from the electronics sector on account of increasing adoption of advanced electronic devices and systems worldwide.
- Growing investments in research and development activities for developing new applications for semiconductor grade polysilicon across different end-use industries.
- Increasing use of semiconductor grade polysilicon in manufacturing high efficiency photovoltaic cells and modules that can be used to generate electricity from sunlight cost-effectively.
