Product Definition:
A single crystal silicon wafer is a disk-shaped piece of silicon that has been grown into a single crystal. These wafers are used in the manufacture of semiconductor devices, and are particularly important in the fabrication of integrated circuits.
300mm Epitaxial Wafer:
300mm epitaxial wafer is a thin slice of single crystal silicon, which can be used for growing semiconductor devices. 300mm epitaxial wafers are grown under high vacuum conditions to prevent contamination from the environment. Growth of such a wafer involves several steps including deposition of an aluminum or copper layer on the substrate, followed by growth of single-crystal silicon layer using thermal evaporation process and lastly removal of substrate along withgrown crystal in its place.
300mm Polished Wafer:
300mm Polished Wafer (PW) is a thin slice of single crystal silicon wafer, which has been polished to provide a surface with the highest possible aspect ratio. The 300mm PW market is expected to grow at an estimated CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2025 owing to its increasing demand in manufacturing semiconductors such as single crystal silicon wafers for LED and organic light-emitting diode applications.
Application Insights:
Single crystal silicon wafers are majorly used in the memory sector as they offer higher storage capacity than multi-layer flash. The usage of single crystal silicon wafer in the memory application segment accounted for a share of over 70% in 2017. The growing demand for semiconductors owing to rising applications such as mobile phones, tablets, laptops and gaming consoles is expected to drive the market growth over the forecast period.
The logic/MPU segment is anticipated to witness significant growth during the forecast period on account of increasing demand from various industrial applications such as power supply units (PSUs), hard disk drives (HDDs) and solid-state drives (SSDs). Single crystal silicon wafer MPU application segment accounted for a share of around 15% in 2017 due to high product efficiency and low power consumption which has resulted into increased adoption across end-use industries.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is anticipated to be the fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing demand for high performance computing systems and smartphones. China, Japan, South Korea, India and Taiwan are some of the largest consumers of single-crystal silicon wafers in this region.
North America was estimated as a significant regional segment in 2017 owing to presence of major players such as Micron Technology Inc., Intel Corporation; however, it is expected to lose its share by 2030 due to technological advancements in Asia Pacific countries such as China and Taiwan which resulted into higher production volumes at lower costs than U.S.-based companies could achieve domestically. This factor would result into lower revenue generation for North American companies operating within global supply chains over next eight years from 2018 through 2030 period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for semiconductor devices: The growth of the semiconductor industry is directly proportional to the growth of the single crystal silicon wafers market. As more and more electronic devices are being manufactured, there is an increasing demand for single crystal silicon wafers to meet the requirements of these devices.
- Growing popularity of solar energy: Solar energy is one of the most promising sources of renewable energy and its popularity is growing rapidly across the globe. This is resulting in an increase in demand for solar panels, which in turn is driving growth in the single crystal silicon wafers market.
- Rising investment in clean technology: Governments and private investors are increasingly allocating funds towards research and development activities related to clean technology such as solar power, wind power, etc., This is propelling growth in both the clean technology sector as well as the single crystal silicon wafers market.
