Semiconductor Film Market

Semiconductor Film Market: Introduction

• Semiconductor films act as building blocks and play a vital role in product manufacturing of sensors, electronic equipment, electronic chips, etc.
• Semiconductor films are widely used in various applications such as solar panels, DRAMs, microprocessors, and wearable technologies among others
• For the instance, in June 2022, TANAKA Kikinzoku Kogyo K.K., announced that the company has established a two-stage film deposition process using the liquid ruthenium (Ru) precursor named TRuST
• Semiconductor films offer numerous benefits such as lightweight, low space consumption, high efficiency, and shape flexibility as compared to traditional silicon
• These features are makes the semiconductor films highly significant for wearable technologies, DRAMs, solar panels, and microprocessors, etc., which in turn is expected to contribute to market growth

Rise in Adoption from IDM and Foundry Industries

• Concerning end-user, the global semiconductor film market can be segmented into IDM, OSAT, and foundry. The IDM and foundries segments are expected to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period due to the increasing use of semiconductor film in integrated circuits (ICs) for metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) technology.
• Semiconductor film is primarily used for opto-electronic, solid state and medical devices and products, including consumer electronics, semiconductor lasers, fiber lasers, LED displays, optical filters, compound semiconductors, precision optics, microscopy and medical implants. This factor is significantly driving the demand for semiconductor film in IDM and foundry segments of the market.

North America to Lead Global Semiconductor Film Market

• In terms of region, the global semiconductor film market can be divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and South America
• North America is expected to hold the largest share of the semiconductor film market during the forecast period due to increasing demand from IDMs such as Analog Devices, Cypress Semiconductor, Fujistu, etc.
• Semiconductor films are widely utilized for masking against the diffusion of dopants into semiconductors. Technology trends in 5G & 6G, by Keysight, Nokia, Samsung & LG, etc., augmented and virtual reality, IoT, and autonomous driving are fueling an unmatched demand for smaller devices with increased functionality, memory, and speed. Semiconductors are a key variable in fulfilling new needs of these emerging technologies.
• Rising digitalization and urbanization, the proliferation of the internet of things (IoT), running investment in advanced automotive system & 5G networks, and innovations in portable electronic devices such as e-readers, smartphones, tablets, and flash drives, are other factors propelling the semiconductor films market in North America
• The semiconductor film market in Asia Pacific and Europe is expected to expand at a significant pace during the forecast period due to rising demand for semiconductor film from diverse industries such as IT & telecommunication, automotive, healthcare and consumer electronics. Moreover, the growth is anticipated to be driven by leading countries such as, India, China, South Korea, Japan, Germany, France, Spain, and Italy.
• The semiconductor film market in Middle East & Africa and South America is anticipated to grow at a steady pace during the forecast period due to conflict between Syria and Yemen, anti-coup rally in Sudan, low economic diversification, an imperative need to improve education systems and infrastructure, complex political and governance scenarios, and persistently high barriers to the social and economic wellbeing of society in these regions
