Market Overview:
The global monocrystalline silicon (Si) 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 solar energy and semiconductors across the globe. Monocrystalline Si is a high-purity form of silicon that is used in the manufacture of solar cells, semiconductors, and other electronic devices. It offers superior performance as compared to other forms of silicon due to its higher purity and smaller grain size. Based on type, the global monocrystalline Si market can be segmented into 4 inch, 6 inch, 8 inch, 12 inch, and other segments. The 8 inch segment is expected to account for the largest share in terms of revenue in 2018 owing to its superior performance characteristics as compared to other types of monocrystalline Si wafers. Based on application, the global monocrystalline Si market can be divided into solar energy and semiconductor segments.

Product Definition:
A monocrystalline silicon wafer is a semiconductor wafer made from a single crystal of silicon. The process of manufacturing these wafers is called Czochralski growth, and it begins with a cylindrical ingot of high-purity silicon. A seed crystal is dipped into the molten silicon and then slowly withdrawn while rotating. This action pulls a thin layer of the liquid silicon up over the seed, gradually forming a small crystal on top of it. As this process continues, larger and larger crystals grow until the entire ingot has been converted into individual monocrystalline wafers.
4 Inch:
4 inch is the new term in the market for monocrystalic silicon (Si) which has a composition of 4% by weight of carbon and other impurities. It is also known as quad- Si or super- fine grade. The major factor that propels its demand over other products is its purity level which approaches to 99%. Its production process demands more technological advancements than others owing to high quality standards required in this product.
6 Inch:
6 inch is the term used for measuring the thickness of single crystal or monocrystalline silicon. It is a unit of measurement that has been adopted by many industries to characterize different types of products such as semiconductors, electronic components and consumer electronics among others. The growth in demand for smartphones & tablets coupled with increasing penetration in various industrial applications including sensors and actuators are expected to drive 6 inch market over the forecast period.
Application Insights:
The solar energy segment dominated the global monocrystalic silicium (Si) market in terms of revenue in 2017. The growth can be attributed to rising demand for photovoltaic cells and other products from the residential, commercial and industrial sectors. Monocrystalline silicon is used as a raw material for manufacturing photovoltaic modules that are used to generate electricity. Increasing government funding & initiatives towards promoting renewable sources of energy such as solar power is also expected to drive the product demand over the forecast period.
Monocrystalline silicon plays an important role in semiconductor devices including integrated circuits, laser diodes, transistors and capacitors among others owing to its superior properties including high thermal conductivity which helps heat dissipation from electronic components more efficiently than traditional materials such as gallium arsenide or aluminum nitride among others.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global monocrystalic silicium market in terms of revenue with a share of over 60% in 2017. This is attributed to the presence of major solar cell manufacturers such as Wuxi Suntech, Trina Solar, and JinkoSolar Holding Co., Ltd. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period owing to growing demand from end-use industries such as electronics and solar energy.
The growth in Europe can be attributed to rising investments by multinational companies for developing new products based on monocrystalline silicon technology. For instance, In January 2018, Siemens announced about its plans for developing a 7 MWp power generation plant using MOSFETs with an efficiency rating greater than 20%. These developments are anticipated to drive regional market growth over the forecast period.
North America accounted for more than 10% share of global revenue in 2017 owing to high product demand from end-use industries such as semiconductors.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the semiconductor and solar industries: Monocrystalline silicon is extensively used in the semiconductor and solar industries due to its superior electronic properties. The growing demand for semiconductors and solar energy is expected to drive the growth of the monocrystalline silicon market in the coming years.
- Rising demand for LED lighting: LEDs are increasingly being used as a replacement for traditional light bulbs due to their superior efficiency and longer life span. Monocrystalline silicon is extensively used in LED lighting applications as it helps improve performance and reduce costs. This is expected to boost the growth of the monocrystalline silicon market in the coming years.
- Growing popularity of electric vehicles: Electric vehicles are becoming increasingly popular due to their low emissions and fuel efficiency. Monocrystalline silicon is widely used in electric vehicle batteries as it helps improve performance and extend battery life span significantly .This is likely to spur growth of this market during forecast period .
